HowTo: Sonoff – Flash 433Mhz RF Bridge with Tasmota Firmware

The Sonoff 433Mhz RF-Bridge is an inexpensive way to control devices that communicate with each other via the 433Mhz radio frequency. In principle it is - as the name suggests - a bridge between the wifi/network world and the 433Mhz radio world.

Unfortunately, Sonoff's in-house firmware is not well suited for connecting to your own SmartHome system. Thanks to the free open source firmware “Tasmota”, the Sonoff 433Mht RF Bridge can be expanded to include this function.

How to transfer the Tasmota firmware to the SOnoff RF-Bridge and what you have to consider is described in the following article.


Safety instructions

I know the following notes are always kind of annoying and seem unnecessary. Unfortunately, many people who knew "better" have lost eyes, fingers or other things due to carelessness or injured themselves. Data loss is almost negligible in comparison, but even these can be really annoying. Therefore, please take five minutes to read the safety instructions. Because even the coolest project is not worth injury or other trouble.

Requirements

Helpful articles:
Before you start with this article, you should have dealt with the basics of soldering. You can find information about this in the following article.

Required material:

In the following list you will find all the parts you need to implement this article.

Required tool:

In the following list you will find all the tools you need to implement this article.


Connect programming adapter

In order to transfer the firmware to the Sonoff RF-Bridge, you must first connect a programming adapter. For this purpose, a suitable pin header must be soldered on beforehand.

The Sonoff 433Mhz RF Bridge.
To get access to the inner workings of the RF bridge you have to open the case.
Remove the rubber caps from the case. This gives you access to the case screws.
After you have removed the screws, you should...
...have these parts lying in front of you.
In order to solder the pin header for the programming adapter, you have to find the right location on the circuit board. This is located right next to the only existing switch and is labeled “J2”.
Insert the pin header through the board as shown and solder it on the bottom side.
Once you have soldered the pin header, you can prepare the programming adapter. You need three wires to connect the connectors TX, RX and GND of the programming adapter.
If you look at the pin header of the programming connector as shown, the assignment from left to right is: SDA, GND, TX, RX, 3.3V. So connect the wires of the programming adapter accordingly. That means programming adapter.TX with Sonoff.RX, programming adapter.RX with Sonoff.TX and programming adapter.GND with Sonoff.GND.
Since the Sonoff RF Bridge communicates with the 433Mhz chip via the serial interface during normal operation, you have to interrupt this connection if you want to use the serial interface to program the Sonoff Bridge. To do this, you have to switch the “S2” switch to the “OFF” position – i.e. towards the pin strip.
Once you have flipped the switch, you must now switch the Sonoff RF Bridge to programming mode. To do this, disconnect any power supply to the bridge. Then press and hold the side button while plugging the USB cable back in. Now hold the button for five seconds and release it.

Flash Tasmota firmware

Now it is time to transfer the Tasmota firmware to the RF-Bridge. Program the Tasmota firmware to the RF-Bridge. How to do this is explained in the following article: Tasmota - Flash firmware

In the following a configuration as I used it for my RF-Bridge. In this configuration you have to configure the access data to your WLAN and if necessary the access data to your MQTT server.

Remove programming adapter and reset

In order for communication with the 433Mhz chip to work again, you have to set the switch “S2” back to the initial situation to “ON”.
Unfortunately the pins of the header are a bit too long to mount the board directly into the case. To make it work you have to bend the pins of the header - as shown in the picture - a little bit.
The green LED (the large white area on the two wires) can then be folded down again.
This should allow you to reinstall the board into the Sonoff RF Bridge housing.

Before commissioning, you should now follow the tips from the article Eektronik - Commissioning of a new circuit note.


Hardware modifications to enable flashing of the EFM8BB1

To flash the integrated EFM8BB1 co-processor, you have to make two small modifications to the hardware. What this brings you and how you can proceed is described in the article Tasmota - Sonoff RF Bridge RF-Chip(EFM8BB1) with Portic Firmware flashing described.


Have fun with the project

I hope everything worked as described for you. If not or you have questions or suggestions please let me know in the comments. I will then add this to the article if necessary.
Ideas for new projects are always welcome. 🙂

PS Many of these projects - especially the hardware projects - cost a lot of time and money. Of course I do this because I enjoy it, but if you think it's cool that I share the information with you, I would be happy about a small donation to the coffee fund. 🙂
