The circuit is very simple, I have used the GPIO pins D1, D2, D5 & D6 to control the 4 relays. And the GPIO pins $D3, D3, D7 & RX connected with switches to control the 4 relays manually. | have used the INPUT_PULLUP function in Arduino IDE instead of using the pull-up resistors. Ihave used a 5V mobile charger to supply the smart relay module. Here, the D3 pin should not be connected with GND during the booting process of NodeMCU. ritps:Iww.nstructables.comSmart-Home-With-Google-Assitant-Alexa-Using-NodeM/ anevoaiz024, 1657 ‘Smart Home With Google Assistant & Alexa Using NodeMCU ESP8266 - oT Project 2021 : 19 Steps - Instructables Step 2: Controlling Relays With Google Assistant Using NodeM Ifthe NodeMCU is connected with the WiFi, then you can control the home appliances from Google H ome App and also from the manual switches.
