@kjm This is indeed a major issue in debugging when using deepsleep.
As soon as the system goes to sleep the USB connection and WiFi connection are gone.
You then have to reconnect manuually first. As you describe, Atom is then also a major issue as the butons disappear and it thinks it is not fully connected while it is.
This makes checking the functionality of a program using sleep very difficult. The only solution I found is using blinking LEDs of several colors to communicate with me the debugger. I am also busy with a logger which writes the state of the program to a file for later inspection.
def blink(color, counts, intensity=0x1f, speed=0.5):
colors = {
"red": 0xFF0000,
"green": 0x00FF00,
"blue": 0x0000FF,
"yellow": 0xFFFF00
}
pycom.rgbled(0x000000)
for i in range(counts):
col = colors.get(color, 0xFFFFFF)
col = int(col * intensity / 255.0)
pycom.rgbled(col)
time.sleep(speed)
pycom.rgbled(0) # off
time.sleep(speed)
def blink_long(color):
pycom.rgbled(color)
time.sleep(4)
pycom.rgbled(0)
it is not possible (yet?)
i think pybytes is running on mqtt so it would be quite easy to implement this servers side.
mqtt does support 2 way communication and pybytes is still beta so i think in the future it will be possible
Hi @Ross-Leamon,
at this moment you can manually setup LTE already with Pybytes: https://forum.pycom.io/topic/4185/new-pybytes-firmware-1-18-1-r9-experimental-lte-support
@protean WiFi connection should now be much more stable in the new firmware 1.18.2.r2. https://forum.pycom.io/topic/4446/update-to-pybytes-firmware-1-18-2-r2-solving-device-wifi-connectivity-issues
Please update your device!
@jirkakrepl
i Don't have that exact software version anymore and you couldn't do much with it because it communicates via CAN-bus with some other devices you probably don't have.
the sending to pybytes parts looks a lot like the provided example.
the time it crashed i didn't update a part i only tried to open the flash tab in pybytes.
i get the
Error publish [Errno 12] ENOMEM
more if i increase the wait time between some data bursts. with 60 seconds almost never but with 600 seconds more often.
Hi @nervencid,
this table is only for saving wifi credentials in Pybytes.
These wifi credentials could be selected (from the combo box) when you create a new device profile in Pybytes.
At this moment a device profile is "locked" with one wifi credentials which were selected during that particular device profile creation.
After that only when you update your Pycom device with the firmware updater, a Pycom device will receive new wifi credentials from Pybytes.
Hi @dnear1
stacked option could create a stacked bar chart if you send an array of a tupple of values with your signal. But at this moment we don't support it, so it does nothing. We're going to refactor this part of UI.
We're going to update docs this week.
Hello,
zip archive which you can download from Pybytes contains just Pybytes library (python code) which you can flash manually with Pymakr.
Tar files are firmware files for Pycom boards.
