Why does the pyfirmata closes after a certain amount of time running?

tino / pyFirmata

Python interface for the Firmata (http://firmata.org/) protocol. It is compliant with Firmata 2.1. Any help with updating to 2.2 is welcome. The Capability Query is implemented, but the Pin State Query feature not yet.

Why does the pyfirmata closes after a certain amount of time running? #113

I don't know the right time, but the loop just closes and no error.

I'm using arduino uno R3 (chinese clone CH340).

I think there's a problem with the threading or something like that...

The code:

from pyfirmata import Arduino, util
import time

Uno = Arduino('COM3')
pin3 = Uno.get_pin('d:3:p')

dt = 0.005
N = 255

while True:

    for i in range(1, N+1, 1):
        # print(i/100)
        pin3.write(i/N)
        time.sleep(dt)

    for i in range(N, 0, -1):
        # print(i/100)
        pin3.write(i/N)
        time.sleep(dt)
