Problems with (BME280) - actually reconnecting WIFI!
Posted: 21 Mar 2016, 09:16
Hello from Germany.
First I want to thank you for your great project! Amazing what you managed to do with this little MCU. Myself I was trying to get some sensors working with LUA scripts and always had problems with the limited resources.
Setting up am ModeMCU ESP12e together with an BME280 sending Data via MQTT to an openHAB installation was a 30 miniutes task.
I was happy to have a high accurate environmental sensor for my greenhouse. But after a few hours I was disappoined seeing that the esp stopped responding after. Only a coold boot helped.
Do anybody else ran into a similar problem?
Is there a kind of watchdog to prevent the esp for stopping?
I checked different power supplies and cables to make shure that it is not an power issue (all 1A min output)
The module is directly connected with 4 f/f wires.
That didn't help
I like to connect a relay to the esp too to controll the greenhouse heating, but if it is not reliable I'm afraid to over or underheat and kill all my wife's jung plans.
Thank you for your help.
