To configure a socket not to block forever (which is the default) you need setsockopt to implement SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO.

Sorry, I meant using something like TRIPP's LITE's B203-101-PNP: http://www.tripplite.com/USB-2.0-Cat5-Cat6-Extender-Transmitter-Receiver-164-Feet-1-Port~B203-101-PNP Ok, so you'll need active power extraction at the node. 802.3bt is backwards compatible with af/at in theory, but it isn't actually ...

High power active PoE has already been/can be run to the various locations, What sort of PoE? Standards compliant (802.3af/t) PoE runs at 48V, supplies ~15-20W and requires a chipset at the end point to negotiate the power budget but there is still quite a lot of "dumb" PoE around that simply invol...

If a microcontroller has a CAN bus, it's machine module has a CAN module. Defines are used in the board definition files, i.e. 'mpconfigboard.h' to activate or deactivate a module. I think I maybe phrased that badly: I intended to ask how you proposed that such situations be handled, not how are th...

I think it makes a lot of sense to ship the drivers for all the hardware present on the official boards -- such as LEDs, buttons, accelerometer, hobby servo connectors, etc. However, I feel they should not go in the "machine" module, but rather in a separate module, specific to the board, such as "...

Don't think about apps, think about drivers. When I implement a module for i.e. a sensor I want that to be usable to people across all ports. I think the consensus is that 'machine' is the microcontrollers API. I was referring to this: "MicroPython (and its apps) being portable across boards is the...

Are you trying to define a HW API for a chip or a board? If the former (which is better for portability) then there should be no assumptions made about what individual pins are connected to. Chips don't have LEDs or buttons. If the latter (which arguably makes things simpler for a limited set of use...

You can't format a FAT (FAT16) partition >4Gb (2Gb for Windows).

Hi there ;) I'm trying to get machine.deepsleep() working on the new WiPy 2.0 but it fails to do so. What am i missing? Thx for any hints ;) Dan Depending upon what version of the SDK your firmware was built against and depending upon what exactly isn't working, you might be running into this: http...

But I believe the _only_ things we have here are socket timeouts and blocking through the usocket module. Good enough for everything you'll realistically do with the ESP8266. It is rather the reverse in my opinion. Blocking sockets and/or lenfthy timeouts are perfectly adequate if you're running Li...
