This article is mainly an overview of the MCU development process of Tuya Gateway general solution.
The development process mainly includes: product creation-hardware debugging-software development-functional debugging.
Log in to the IoT Workbench and create a product. Select the product category according to the actual needs, and select Wi-Fi for the networking method. After the product is created, you can select the functions, panels, modules, and firmware according to the actual needs of the product and then download it to the MCU development kit.
The specific steps to create a product can refer to: Product Creation-IoT Platform Operation
Hardware selection
When creating a product selection module, the platform will recommend some common module models. At present, the gateway MCU access solution can only be provided by Wi-Fi gateway module-WRG1.
After selecting the module and firmware, you can purchase module samples online.
The hardware engineer can enter the drawing board stage, and the related materials for hardware development can be viewed in the document center:
Data manual link: Wi-Fi Gateway Module-WRG1 Datasheet
Module minimum schematic: Wi-Fi Gateway Module-WRG1 minimal system schematic diagram PCB data: Common module package library
Distribution Network Verification
After getting the module, users do n’t need to worry about writing code first. It is recommended to use the module debugging assistant (MCU simulation mode) provided by Tuya to connect with the WRG1 module first. When verifying the module, users can be familiar with The protocol interaction process will greatly improve the efficiency of development and debugging later.
Tuya module debugging assistant-MCU simulation mode. The assistant will simulate the MCU to automatically reply the module's correct protocol data. After the module is networked with a mobile phone, the DP data can be reported and issued. The following briefly introduces the main steps of the assistant and module distribution network operation. Before using it, you need to know the instructions of Tuya Module Debugging Assistant in advance. Users who use the assistant for the first time can read in advance: Module Debugging Assistant Instruction
step1. According to the minimum system schematic diagram, set up the module peripheral circuit, and simple test can directly fly the wire.
step2. Set device capabilities,open the Tuya module debugging assistant in the development kit and import the debugging file. Protocol selection Wi-Fi gateway protocol, MCU simulation mode.
step3. Connect the serial port of the module to the computer through the USB to TTL tool. The assistant selects the corresponding serial port and baud rate. Open the serial port and click Start. You will see that the module and the host computer automatically perform the initialization process protocol interaction.
Note: If no data is sent after power on, please check if the peripheral circuit of the module is correct.
step4. Click Reset Module, the module enters the network distribution mode. The module supports two modes of network configuration: EZ and AP mode (the difference between EZ mode and AP mode). The reset button will switch the network configuration mode. According to the status prompt, the App performs the corresponding network configuration operation. For the network configuration operation, you can read the instruction of the App. Attach a demo video of the network distribution in two modes: Wi-Fi module network distribution demonstration video.
In the process of hardware debugging, the user saw that the module and the MCU have a series of serial protocol protocol interaction data. For the understanding of these data, please refer to the protocol document in the development kit.
The agreement is mainly divided into two parts: the basic agreement and the functional agreement. The basic protocol has nothing to do with the product. It is a common protocol of the module, including module initialization instructions and some extended function instructions. The function protocol part is mainly based on the command word of the report of the basic protocol, and has explained the DP data content format in detail. The complete content of the basic protocol, the document center is kept updated in real time, you can click the link to view: Tuya Cloud Gateway Access Protocol
There are two ways for MCU to interface with Tuya module: transplant the MCU SDK or connect the protocol by yourself.
Self-docking agreement
When MCU resources are limited or the MCU SDK is not suitable for porting, customers can choose to connect the serial port protocol by themselves. The detailed explanation of serial port protocol can refer to: Tuya Cloud Gateway Access Protocol Analysis
Porting MCU SDK
If the MCU resources are sufficient, it is generally recommended that users directly port the MCU SDK for efficient and convenient development. The MCU SDK in the development kit is a C-based protocol application code provided by Tuya, which can be directly added to the MCU project. The MCU SDK requires MCU hardware resources: 4K bytes of Flash; RAM is related to the length of the DP point data, about 100 bytes (if OTA function is required, it must be greater than 260 bytes); the number of function nesting levels is 9 levels. If users with insufficient resources can connect the protocol by themselves, the functions in the SDK package can still be used as a reference.
MCU SDK porting tutorial, please refer to: Tuya Wi-Fi Gateway MCU_SDK Instructions
After porting the MCU SDK code development, you can use the Tuya module debugging assistant-module simulation mode to verify the correctness of the MCU code. The usage method is similar to the MCU simulation mode. In the simulation module mode, the assistant will automatically send the initialization data stream to verify that the MCU response is correct and give corresponding prompts for the incorrect data. After the initial interaction is passed, you can manually click to test other extended functions.
Note: Tuya module debugging assistant module simulation mode, without networking function, only used to verify the correctness of MCU serial protocol transmission and reception. After the test is completed, the MCU can be connected to the actual module and network.

Description：
The working mode of the module is mainly for how to indicate the working status of the Wi-Fi module and how to reset the Wi-Fi module. There are two main cases：
MCU cooperates with the module, that is, the module notifies the MCU through the serial port, the current working status is supported by the MCU, the Wi-Fi will be reset through the serial port when the MCU detect the reset request.
Module self-processing: The working status of the WIFI module drives the LED status display through the WIFI GPIO pin; WIFI reset is processed by detecting the GPIO input requirements
The method of resetting the Wi-Fi module through module self-processing：WIFI will be triggered when detecting that the low level of GPIO entrance last for more than 5s. Reset: The GPIO pins used by the indicators and buttons are configured by the following commands.

Description：
When to upgrade the firmware will depend on the configurations customers set on IoT platform, module will only serves as a data transmission channel that supports MCU upgrades, and does not do any analysis of the data content.
Currently, the MCU OTA supports 4 methods on IoT Platform as follows.
App reminder upgrade：the end user will receive the pop-up message of upgrade every time they enter the device panel, the end user will decide update or not.
App silent upgrade：there is no pop-up reminder of this method, The firmware will automatically detect the upgrade within one minute after it is powered on. If the upgrade package is found and with a higher version, it will automatically start to pull the relevant upgrade package. After the first power-on, the module will go to the cloud to detect whether there is an upgrade package configuration every 24 hours.
App forced upgrade: the end user will receive the pop-up message of this method, the panel cannot be used normally if the end user does not confirm the upgrade.
App detection upgrade: there is not pop-up message on the app side, the end user has to click 'check the firmware upgrade' to detect if newer version is available. The pop-up message only appears when newer version is available.
MCU OTA process：
After the Wi-Fi module has sent all the upgrade packages, re-send the 01 command word (3.2 query product information). The MCU needs to reply within one minute to the software version number in the product information with the upgraded MCU version number. The version number needs to be the same as the upgraded version number configured at the Tuya backend.

1.0.0 | Document creation | Chunsheng Zhao | 20200325 |
A：1：Up to 128 sub-devices； 2：The number of sub-devices added at one time cannot exceed 32
A：Gateway general MCU integration:MCU is developed by customers according to the Wi-Fi module Tuya provides. As long as the MCU sends data according to the serial port protocol, it can access the Tuya platform. Therefore, the general connection of the gateway is not related to the communication type of the sub-device.
A：This is related to the number of conditions and actions created by the user. One condition is about 250 bytes, and one action is about 200 bytes. If you create 1 condition and 5 actions, it is not recommended to exceed 10.
A：The MCU sets the next heartbeat interval in the heartbeat reply frame. The default heartbeat interval time is 1min, and the minimum settable heartbeat interval is 180s
A：The module will query the sub-device heartbeat before the heartbeat cycle arrives, and the heartbeat of the sub-device will be delivered in advance (8S + random seconds). This is to avoid the condition that the MCU has no time to deal with the heartbeat when multiple sub-devices sending the heartbeat at the same time.
A：The module will send a heartbeat query package to the MCU in ahead of time before the heartbeat cycle arrives. If the MCU does not reply within 8s, the heartbeat query package will be retransmitted again. If the MCU has not responded in 3 times. The module will report to the cloud that device is offline. After that, the module will stop sending a heartbeat frame until the MCU sends a status frame of the sub-device to the WiFi module. The module will notify the cloud to be online and restart the sub-device heartbeat.
A：During the heartbeat interval, the module will refresh the heartbeat and re-start when it receives the status data of the sub-device.
A：It is recommend that each frame of the data does not exceed 256 bytes, if the amount of data needed to synchronise the status of the sub-device after networking is quite a few, it can be sent in packets. The frame interval is recommended to be 100ms.
A：'pid' can be filled in created on IoT platform. The length of 'sub_id' cannot exceed 25 bytes. 'gid' is decided when the module issue，the range is from 0 to 65535，the length cannot exceed 5 bytes.
A：yes，the firmware version number format is xx.xx.xx x is from 0 to 9
A：The information of sub-devices will be kept if only removing the gateway. However, the sub-device information will not be available when the gateway is restored to the factory setting. Besides, the information also be invalid when the device is re-paired under another app account.
A: The default timeout time for general commands is 500ms. Heartbeat detection is 8s.
A：The commando will be resent, resent 2 times in 1s interval -> resent 3 times at 10s intervals -> stop resending
A：Pull low the pin 8-EN
A：When you encounter problems during debugging and need to obtain the module operation log for Tuya analysis, as shown above, the flying line leads the Log_Tx andGND pins, connect the USB to serial port tool, the serial port configuration 38400,8, N, 1, Use the PC serial assistant to grab the log to save the text, and give it to the graffiti engineer for analysis.
Pls log in Tuya IoT Platform，Tuya online support team， Tuya will have professional engineers to answer your questions online. In order to quickly understand and solve your problem, it is recommended that you describe your problem in the following format:
-Problem background: For example,I am the engineer of XYZ company, doing XX solution for now. -Problem description: Describe as far as possible the conditions under which your problem occurs. What is the problem phenomenon? Can it be re-appeared? -Problem attachments: Please upload attachments for screenshots or logs of faulty scenes if you have.
Sub-device creation: When creating a product, select a non-exempt development plan. If you can choose the protocol shown below, it is the sub-device plan.
Resetting WIFI status transition as shown below：The self-processing WIFI reset method of the module is: Wi-Fi will be triggered for reset when detecting the low level of the GPIO entrance for more than 5s.
