Timer Interval: Int32?

[DottoreTozzi]

Hi Sam,

in an attempt to put the iSpindel to its limits, I've put one in my Flanders Red Ale, which is supposed to ferment over the next 12 months.
So I set the interval to 6 hours, which apparently causes an overflow.

Would it cause a lot of trouble to use an Int64 for this value instead?

Thanks,
Stephan

Hey Stephan,

so the variable is actually https://github.com/universam1/iSpindel/blob/master/pio/src/iSpindel.cpp#L71 a uint32 in seconds, that are 136 years so I wonder if you are able to drink it in your life 😄

Now, as the hardware only supports ~72min max sleep time I am doing a trick here to allow longer sleep time.
Check this code from here https://github.com/universam1/iSpindel/blob/master/pio/src/iSpindel.cpp#L550 there you see that I am reincarnating if there a further sleep 'steps' left to do.
Actually I tested that piece of code quite thoroughly, so I wonder if you are using an older Firmware version maybe?

@DottoreTozzi I found that https://github.com/universam1/iSpindel/blob/master/pio/src/iSpindel.cpp#L332 was actually limiting to only 4 digits so only 9999s. Changed that and it works for me, please double check if thats the case for you too.
Released under 5.7.1

Nice, will test, thank you!

Confirmed, works like a charm now, thank you!
