Hello everyone. I really hope that someone can guide me into the right direction. My wife has a kitchen scale that is able to broadcast the weight readout over a serial port. I’m able to capture the data on a pc, but it is very inconvenient to use the pc in the kitchen. How do I use the ESP8266 so that it takes the serial data and broadcast it to an IP address.(with example Putty) On this way I can capture and store the weight without having the pc in way. I know that I have to stepdown the voltage of the serial port, but how to I make the ESP8266 work like a converter?
