wake from light-sleep due to serial character reception #115

Closed geeksville closed 4 years ago

geeksville commented 4 years ago

Now that we are letting these devices work as USB radio dongles, it would be good to turn on wake-from-sleep if a character arrives on the serial port. The change should be fairly easy - just change doLightSleep() to enable that bit in the sleep controller hardware (per ESP32 documentation).

This would allow when running as a dongle a very-very low current draw.

Now that the python API exists this is much more important.
