T-Lite: how to keep it awake ?
-
Hello there,
I am trying to use a m5stack T-Lite with Home Assistant to monitor my photovoltaïc system (Victron). The T-Lite is powered (usb c) permanently but keeps falling asleep despite attempts to keep it awake (see below). How can I make sure it won't go to sleep and become unavailable via wifi (http://192.168.1.xxx/json) ?- id: keep_t_lite_awake
alias: "Keep T-Lite awake"
mode: restart
trigger:- platform: time_pattern
seconds: "/20" # toutes les 20 s
action: - service: rest_command.t_lite_keepalive
- platform: time_pattern
- id: keep_t_lite_awake

Last attempt: I have just added
WiFi.setSleep(false);in the setup() of main.cpp (M5StickC-Plus-TLite-FW.git). Let's see if it stays online (awake)
-
Since I still have interruptions in the json push, it might not be because the Wifi goes to sleep, but because for some reason (busy socket, frames collision, queue overflows, memory leak / heap fragmentation,...), the json is no longer posted... I added a soft reset of the ESP in the main loop whenever a delay from the last successfull of the POST is exceeded...

The soft reset seems to do the job (12 hours of measurements uninterrupted)
