ESP8266 resetting about deepsleepscheduler

[PRosenb]

Hi,

Thanks for your message. The idea is to only have scheduler.execute() in your loop() method like this:

void loop() {
  scheduler.execute();
}

Please remove all other code in loop(). Does it still reset the esp8266?

You can move the code you have in loop() to callback methods like your initializeModem() and schedule it on regular basis.

It does not work with simple code. I am using nodemcu dev board featuring esp12e. I have checked that delay of up to 8 seconds work but not 9+ seconds.

`#include <DeepSleepScheduler.h>

void setup() {

Serial.begin(115200);

scheduler.scheduleDelayed(initializeModem, 9000);

}

void loop() {

scheduler.execute();

}

void initializeModem(){

Serial.println();

Serial.println("Initializing modem...");

}`

Hi @kulwinderjit ,
Thanks for testing it out. Unfortunately, I don't have an ESP8266 here at the moment. Could you check if the following workaround solves the issue?

#include "DeepSleepScheduler.h"

void periodicExecution() {
  scheduler.scheduleDelayed(periodicExecution, 5000);
}

void setup() {
  scheduler.schedule(periodicExecution);
}

void loop() {
  scheduler.execute();
}

Updated library to 3.2. It does not work

Hi @kulwinderjit
Could you try my code above? Does it work with it?
Thanks,
Pete

[kulwinderjit]

yes i have tried your code it worked and then i changed 5000 to 9000 and it started resetting again. Then i saw there is library update 3.2 after updating it stopped working with 5000 and even 1000.

[PRosenb]

I see, thanks for testing it. The version 3.2 is not yet released. Please continue to use 3.1 for now and I will look into it when I get an ESP8266 again.

[kulwinderjit]

I see. I got 3.2 update on platformio but not in arduino ide.

[PRosenb]

Interesting.. So platformio seems not to honour the tag.
I hope you're not blocked any more with 3.1 and the workaround above.

It does not work with interval 9 sec or more. I have requirement of around 60 second timeout. Your code worked because you put 5000 ms interval which works.

Hi @kulwinderjit,
I got an ESP8266 and updated DeepSleepScheduler on master. Does it work well for you now?
