Tuya MCU SDK Arduino Library is developed based on the Tuya Wi-Fi general integration solution. The device's MCU is connected to a Wi-Fi module through a serial port to implement a network connection. The development is based on general firmware, which supports the adaptative 9600 and115200 baud rate. Please read this document carefully before development.
Now welcome to join the Tuya Beta Test Program to get your development gifts and make your own arduino projects with Tuya Support. Your feedback is helpful and valuable to the whole community.

When you use this library for development with Arduino, you must add the header file TuyaWifi.h
in your Arduino project.
Every product that is created on the Tuya IoT Platform will have a unique product ID (PID). The PID is associated with all information related to this product, including specific DP, app control panel, and delivery information.
In unsigned char TuyaWifi::init(unsigned char *pid, unsigned char *mcu_ver)
, the PID is obtained after you create a product on the Tuya IoT Platform. The PID of a Wi-Fi product is typically 16 bytes. The mcu_ver
parameter is the version number of the software. Pay attention to this parameter if you want to support OTA updates of the MCU.
Note: The current version of the library does not support the OTA feature.
#include <TuyaWifi.h>
TuyaWifi my_device;
...
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
...
my_device.init("xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", "1.0.0");// "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx": the PID on the Tuya IoT Platform. "1.0.0" is the default value. You can change "1.0.0" to the actual version number of the current software.
...
}
void loop()
{
...
my_device.uart_service();
...
}

Create products on the Tuya IoT Platform and get information on product DP points.
A data point (DP) represents a smart device function.
- Tuya abstracts each function into a data point. DPs are defined in different data types, such as Boolean, enumeration, and integer.
- DPs have read and write attributes. For example, a 2-gang switch has two Boolean DPs, and each DP has either a
True
orFalse
value, which is readable and writable. - To read means to get the current value of the switch, and to write means to change the current value of the switch.
DPID: specifies the ID of a DP event under a communication protocol.
The MCU SDK needs to know which DPs you have created and what type they are. Pass them to the MCU SDK through the void TuyaWifi::set_dp_cmd_total(unsigned char dp_cmd_array[][2], unsigned char dp_cmd_num)
function.
The Tuya IoT Platform has six types of DPs:
#define DP_TYPE_RAW 0x00 // Raw type
#define DP_TYPE_BOOL 0x01 // Boolean type
#define DP_TYPE_VALUE 0x02 // Numeric type
#define DP_TYPE_STRING 0x03 // String type
#define DP_TYPE_ENUM 0x04 // Enum type
#define DP_TYPE_BITMAP 0x05 // Fault type
In the void TuyaWifi::set_dp_cmd_total(unsigned char dp_cmd_array[][2], unsigned char dp_cmd_num)
function, dp_cmd_array[][2]
is the array that stores DP information, and dp_cmd_num
is the total number of DPs.
Assume that a light has three functions, corresponding to three DPs as below:
- Switch (DP ID: 20, DP type: Boolean type).
- Brightness (DP ID: 21, DP type: numeric type).
- Light mode (DP ID: 22, DP type: enum type).
#include <TuyaWifi.h>
TuyaWifi my_device;
...
#define DPID_SWITCH 20 // The switch DP of the light.
#define DPID_LIGHT 21 // The brightness DP of the light.
#define DPID_MODE 22 // The working mode DP of the light.
// Note: array[][0] is DP ID, and array[][1] is DP type.
unsigned char dp_id_array[][2] = {
/* DPID | DP type */
{DPID_SWITCH, DP_TYPE_BOOL},
{DPID_LIGHT, DP_TYPE_VALUE},
{DPID_MODE, DP_TYPE_ENUM},
};
...
void setup()
{
...
my_device.set_dp_cmd_total(dp_id_array, 3);
...
}
Call void TuyaWifi::mcu_set_wifi_mode(unsigned char mode)
to enter the pairing mode.
/**
* @description: The MCU sets Wi-Fi working mode
* @param {unsigned char} mode: Enter the specified mode
* 0(SMART_CONFIG): Enter SmartConfig (Wi-Fi Easy Connect) mode
* 1(AP_CONFIG): Enter AP mode
* @return {*}
*/
void TuyaWifi::mcu_set_wifi_mode(unsigned char mode);
After the cloud sends data, the sent data must be parsed through the unsigned char TuyaWifi::mcu_get_dp_download_data(unsigned char dpid, const unsigned char value[], unsigned short len)
function.
Currently, this function only supports three types: DP_TYPE_BOOL
, DP_TYPE_VALUE
, and DP_TYPE_ENUM
. DP_TYPE_BITMAP
refers to the data of fault type, in which the data is only reported to the cloud. You do not need to handle this type. DP_TYPE_RAW
and DP_TYPE_STRING
must be implemented yourself.
/**
* @description: The MCU gets Boolean, numeric, and enum types to send DP value. (The data of the raw and string types shall be handled at the user's discretion. The data of the fault type can only be reported.)
* @param {unsigned char} dpid: Data point (DP) ID
* @param {const unsigned char} value: DP data buffer address
* @param {unsigned short} len: Data length
* @return {unsigned char} Parsed data
*/
unsigned char TuyaWifi::mcu_get_dp_download_data(unsigned char dpid, const unsigned char value[], unsigned short len);
The app sends DP control commands to the device through the cloud. After data parsing, the device executes the specified actions accordingly.
A callback function is required to process the sent commands, so a processing function must be registered. We can call void TuyaWifi::dp_process_func_register(tuya_callback_dp_download _func)
to register the callback function.
#include <TuyaWifi.h>
TuyaWifi my_device;
...
void setup()
{
...
// Register DP download processing callback function
my_device.dp_process_func_register(dp_process);
...
}
/**
* @description: DP download callback function.
* @param {unsigned char} dpid
* @param {const unsigned char} value
* @param {unsigned short} length
* @return {unsigned char}
*/
unsigned char dp_process(unsigned char dpid,const unsigned char value[], unsigned short length)
{
switch(dpid) {
case DPID_SWITCH:
switch_value = my_device.mcu_get_dp_download_data(dpid, value, length);
if (switch_value) {
// Turn on
} else {
// Turn off
}
// Status changes must be reported.
my_device.mcu_dp_update(dpid, value, length);
break;
default:break;
}
return SUCCESS;
}
Reporting the device status is to report the values of all DPs. It is also implemented through function registration.
Six data types of DPs are defined as follows:
DP reporting function:
/**
* @description: DP data upload
* @param {unsigned char} dpid
* @param {const unsigned char} value
* @param {unsigned short} length
* @return {*}
*/
unsigned char mcu_dp_update(unsigned char dpid, const unsigned char value[], unsigned short len);//update raw, string type
unsigned char mcu_dp_update(unsigned char dpid, unsigned long value, unsigned short len);
unsigned char mcu_dp_update(unsigned char dpid, unsigned int value, unsigned short len);
Example of registering a device status reporting function
#include <TuyaWifi.h>
TuyaWifi my_device;
#define DPID_SWITCH 20
// Record the current status of the LED
unsigned char switch_value = 0;
...
void setup()
{
...
// Register DP download processing callback function
my_device.dp_update_all_func_register(dp_update_all);
...
}
/**
* @description: Upload all DP status of the current device.
* @param {*}
* @return {*}
*/
void dp_update_all(void)
{
my_device.mcu_dp_update(DPID_SWITCH, switch_value, 1);
}
