one of 7 sense devices with an error

[Flieger37]

Thank you for programming the plugin!

I am getting the following error when starting homebridge for one of my seven sense devices (running connected to a an Ondus guard):

"[Ondus] [Bad OG] Unable to update device status: getURL(): Unexpected server response: Error: Too Many Requests"

May be its because of to many devices?

Yes, there seems to exist a server side cap on how many requests the api can handle within a certain time period. A debug log of this happening can help me better understand the issue perhaps?

This error occurs once or twice in an hour:

Just let me know, what to do to provide more information to you.

Will try and add a backoff algorithm in the http handling for the next release

Hi, is it possible for you to test from a feature branch? I have added throttling support to https://github.com/faune/homebridge-grohe-sense/tree/feature/release-1.5 but have no idea what rate limits the Ondus API uses, and this fix has a potential to slow down your home bridge instance if the limits are not configured correctly.

I want feedback on if this fixes your issue related to "Too Many Requests"

Looks good, no more errors - Thank's:

Very good! V1.5 will have a new config pane for setting throttling limits from the GUI, so I think I will use current values as default values since it worked for you. Thanks for the help!

BTW are any of your 7 devices a Sense Plus, the type connected to main ac and not battery operated?

[Flieger37]

I was glad to help and am happy about the good result.

All devices are sense with batteries (and one guard) - no sense Plus devices.
