Re: station.scan() issue on ESP32

Thanks Dave I can see what you were trying to say now ... Yes, with the 25 second part, the ESP32 would boot and connect within that time, so the WDT could be enabled from the start which is what I would want as with my luck, I would get a freeze before I enable the WDT and would then have to take a...

Re: station.scan() issue on ESP32

Hi Dave I am still confused about tristating the WDI and why it is needed The tech document says """ Watchdog Input. Generates a reset if the logic level on the pin remains low or high for the duration of the watchdog timeout. The timer is cleared if a logic transition occurs on this pin or if a res...

Re: station.scan() issue on ESP32

Hi I can't log errors in station.scan() as that is part of the Micropython image installed on the ESP32 I am not sure how I would get to the code to update that I do have a try / catch around the station.scan() command to catch any errors, but it does not pick up an error, because if it did, I would...
