# ESP32 Rest API, Pulse Clock & VIC Configurator
# Phase Selectable VIC
Utilizing DPDT toggle switches to allow inline phase inversion of each VIC component allow significant selectivity in operational configurations.
450VDC push-pull EL34 vacuum tube driven VIC 4:1 stepdown ferromagnetic core
Earlier version of above, but with an added DPDT relay driven by a 3rd signal input and darlington driver, attempting the Crossover Voltage Switching utilized in the Steam Resonator.
With the monster transformer in there, I would get a very strange buildup of electrostatic vibrations on the metal chassis. No vibrations were felt on the plastic of the meter panels, but everywhere on the metal parts.
# CrayonXA (My First 9XA)
Learning transistors, power supplies, 555 timers, Schmidt Triggers, AND gates, darlington transistors and optocouplers all in one shot. It still amazes me this ever worked :)
The circuit for this design originated from [Max Miller's 9XA](http://irondmax.com/pdf/ProjectIcarus.pdf) (drawn in crayon)

A funny video illustrating how I still had much to learn about building circuits :)
More progress on the 9XA. Learning how proper transistor biasing and loading is important for controlling amplitude modulation.

# 8XA Alternator Setup
This was an old attempt at using an unrectified alternator's 3 phase output running from a 1/3 HP AC synchronous motor.
# DIY EMF Detector
Easy homemade EMF probe. I added a piezo buzzer to mine, and found it very helpful to "listen" to the fields coming off of things like wires and HV bulbs, and water capacitors.

# Magnetic Amplifiers
# Saturation Oscillator
You must *listen* to your energy. It plays notes. Once you learn to trigger those notes, you can play a chord.
Playing with distributed inductances and capacitances and harmonics generated from 60 Hz line noise. Using resistive dampening to load mutually coupled transformers inline with the magnetic amplifier's reactive side.

### Setting Up The App
##### Modify ESP C+ Code to configure local network settings
1. 1. Determine your local network's Subnet range (It should be one of these: 10.0.0.0/8, 192.168.0.0/16, or 172.xxx.xxx.xxx)
1. See: [https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-find-ip-address-of-router](https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-find-ip-address-of-router)
2. Write down the address of your Gateway (your Router's IP address)
2. Find a free DHCP issued internal IP address on your local network (Guess an IP not in use by picking a number between 100 and 255 for the very last position in your subnet: 192.168.1.xxx)
3. Find your WIFI SSID and Password
1. SSID = The name of your Wifi Connection as your Phone or PC would see it on the network connection browser
2. Password = Your Wifi Password
4. Configure the IP, Gateway and your Wifi SSID & credentials into the ESP code below
1. Preview Of areas to change in code below:
```C++
// #### Change Me ####
const char *SSID = "NETGEAR";
const char *PWD = "12345678";
// Don't Change Me
const char *ASSET_HOST = "https://wavegenjs.s3.amazonaws.com";
// Web server running on port 80
WebServer server(80);
// #### CHANGE ME ####
// Set your Static IP address
IPAddress local_IP(192, 168, 1, 8);
// Set your Gateway IP address
IPAddress gateway(192, 168, 1, 1);
```
5. Copy the full script (down below) and paste it into your Arduino IDE
1. See: [https://randomnerdtutorials.com/how-to-install-esp8266-board-arduino-ide/](https://randomnerdtutorials.com/how-to-install-esp8266-board-arduino-ide/)
6. Compile and Upload the code to the ESP32
1. Install required libraries (FreeRTOS, ArduinoJSON, Wifi, and WebServer.)
1. See: [https://docs.arduino.cc/software/ide-v1/tutorials/installing-libraries](https://docs.arduino.cc/software/ide-v1/tutorials/installing-libraries)

2. Observe the Serial Monitor Log output from the Arduino IDE
3. Confirm network connectivity was established with your router.
7. Connect 2 separate Oscilloscope probes to pins "0" and "2" to ground, on your ESP.
8. Open a web browser on a computer connected to the same internal network as the ESP was given
1. Go to the ESP's given IP Address: [http://192.168.1.8](http://192.168.1.8)
9. Enjoy! (if it works)
##### Troubleshooting:
View the Console Log for errors in your browser while clicking the app's sliders buttons etc..
