Mopi hangs after about 30 days working. #107

Closed McTucker closed 7 years ago

McTucker commented 7 years ago

At 23:00 mopi sets pi to sleep. at 07:00 is wakes up the pi again. This works for about 30 days without any problems. But after about 30 days, mopi doesn't wake-up the pi anymore. Then I have to disconnect mopi from power (12v car baterry) and then it will work for the next 30 days.

Is there a way to reset the mopi by software to avoid this problem?

Regards, Harrie.

Hmm, that's a wierd one! Did you try reading status from the board and seeing if anything changes over the course of the runtime? Apart from that I guess an arrangement where pulling down the Pi supply also pulls down the MoPi supply for a few seconds would be fairly easy to come up with...?

I will check this (after about one month, when it's hanging again ;-) Will let you know! Thanks for your fast reply, and the fine mopies (yep, got two of this fine things)
