This one has bitten me too last week :)
And yes this should be changed :)
Ah ok, worked it out: generic system info device
Thanks!

battery vcc measure problem

Hi, I have a lipo battery connected to a ldo 3.3v regulator that is powering my esp8266. This works fine however I want to monitor the 3.3v and then detect when it just starts to drop out which will indicate that the battery is getting too low. I am using the vcc bin, I added "analog internal&q...

Re: SYSLOG priority in sleep/wake

Thank you for your help Thomas, I have Rules enabled and I am still experiencing difficulties.

I take your point about Syslog and will use MQTT via Rules and extend the on-time.

Cheers

Simple sleep/measure/send/sleep application help please!

Hi, my previous post has been up for a while with no comments... Can anyone point me to a simple tutorial that details the steps to * set up an esp8266 that goes into deep sleep for 5 minutes at a time * when it wakes up, it reads from a sensor (e.g. a BME280) and sends this to a Syslog server once ...

Re: GPIO problem with deep sleep

Thanks for the reply, and very nice results, that's pretty much what I want to achieve

Would you mind sharing your setup?
What are your sleep/wake times? What is the timer set for BME280? Where are you logging the data?
Any info would be very helpful

Thanks!

SYSLOG priority in sleep/wake

Hi, I am using a regular 4M nodemcu with the 25/4 mega release. I have a problem with Syslog. If I use my device in normal mode (no deep sleep), the syslog server collects data that mirrors the serial log (apart from the stuff before Wifi connects obviously). It's pretty much sent simultaneously If ...

GPIO problem with deep sleep

Hi, great software, I am trying to do something pretty simple: I just want my device to wake up, send the sensor readings to syslog, and then power off. I have a BME280 so it reads pressure, humidity, and temperature. Set to do this every 6 seconds I really need the BME280 sensor to be powered down ...
