Release v1.5.0 Alpha1

This is a major upgrade from v1.2.x. There is no direct upgrade path from v1.2.x.

Supported Build Environment

Starting with v1.5.0 the only supported build environment is ESP-IDF v4.0.1 (or v4.0 release branch) in either command line or via VSCode with the Espressif IDF plugin.

Build instructions

Build instructions can be found here.

New/Updated Features

  • Switched to ESP-IDF v4.0 as a base rather than Arduino-esp32. This also included migrating build infrastructure over to CMake.
  • Dynamic configuration of WiFi and LCC details.
  • DCC signal generation is now done via the RMT peripheral instead of hardware timers.
  • RailCom cut-out has been integrated for the LMD18200 h-bridge.
  • HTTP server has been replaced to improve stability and performance.
  • LCC Traction Protocol support has been added.

Removed/Disabled Features

  • LocoNet, this was not tested/working and has been removed. It likely will not return in it's current form.
  • Integrated Nextion Throttle, this has been disabled due to compatibility issues with the ESP-IDF UART code and the NeoNextion library. This may return in a future release.
  • PlatformIO IDE, due to the migration to ESP-IDF v4.0 this has been disabled and may return in the future after extensive testing.
