cyberman54 / ESP32-Paxcounter

Hi there, first of all thank you for this great open source project!

Board: TTGO T-Beam T22_V1.1 with NEO-6M (ttgobeam10.h with disabled display)
Paxcounter V3.1.0

I'm using paxcounter as a TTN mapper, so I've configured

#define BLECOUNTER                      0
#define WIFICOUNTER                     0

At first I've started with a sleep cycle, but then I can't get a fix before going to sleep.

So I've changed to
#define SLEEPCYCLE 0
but the T-Beam is going to sleep anyway. Is this intentional?

Then I've tried setting SLEEPCYCLE with a TTN downlink.
Sending 19 00 1E works as it should and gives me the following log:

16:09:20.190 > [I][lorawan.cpp:417] myRxCallback(): Received 3 byte(s) of payload on port 2
16:09:20.201 > [I][rcommand.cpp:93] set_sleepcycle(): Remote command: set sleep cycle to 300 seconds

But sending 19 00 00 gives:

16:09:42.645 > [I][lorawan.cpp:417] myRxCallback(): Received 3 byte(s) of payload on port 2

I think this is intentional based on the following lines:

ESP32-Paxcounter/src/rcommand.cpp

Lines 88 to 90 in 96c5912

    
           uint16_t t = __builtin_bswap16(*(uint16_t *)(val)); 
        
           if (t == 0) 
        
             return;

In the end I've I got it working with a reset to factory settings with the downlink 09 02, but I wanted to clarify whether this behavior is intentional.

Best regards

The #defines are for factor default setting. If you change them and upload a new build, you must clear NVRAM, otherwise the device loads the previous runtime settings from NVRAM.

To change runtime settings use rcommand. To make new runtime setting persistent, add rcommand save.

Thanks for the quick answer, so it is intentional that I cant turn off sleep via downlink (19 00 00)?

you're right, this is a bug. Fixed.

	uint16_t t = __builtin_bswap16((uint16_t )(val));
	if (t == 0)
	return;

Cant turn off sleep cycle (without factory reset)
