Screen randomly coming on #174

Open cerietke opened 3 years ago

cerietke commented 3 years ago

I've placed an M5stack Core on my bedside table and use it to turn off the light and other stuff in the bedroom when I go to bed. Every now and then I notice that the screen comes on in the middle of the night (mostly when it's shining right in my face and wakes me). I don't believe anything is being sent to it on MQTT. Is this standard behavior for Homepoint or is it something else? Is there a configuration option to make it stop doing this? If this is not Homepoint, anybody an idea how I can best figure out what it's responding to?

Possibly an enhancement idea: being able to set operating hours outside of which the screen only comes on based on a button press?

isn't it rebooting at that point? (see other bugs where we reported random reboots when it looses wifi or something) I have never seen any other reason why it would light up (at least in my testing)

cerietke commented 3 years ago

It's possible: as it comes from a black screen it's hard to tell what happens before. There are no indications of issues that I've seen. I can control my light through it and it looks the same as when I turn my light on through google assistant instead, which through my automation updates the homepoint state for that switch.

yeah i keep values from domoticz on there like temp / humidity ... so when it reboots it looses all state of those so everything shows 0 ... I have it sitting at my desk... not sure why it does that ... sometimes its twice a day ... sometimes its ok for weeks... I was wondering about wifi reception at my desk though (since most other stuff is wired there and its a corner of my house)

I among other things have it show the volume level on my receiver, when it comes on unexpectedly it still has the right number. Maybe this rules out a reboot?
