ESP8266 actuator keepalive?
-
When using an esp8266 actuator the connection is established by the controller. When the node is restarted this connection gets lost. This is why I set the data timeout to 1 minute in Domoticz. Now I have the problem, that Domoticz reconnects once a minute because the node is an pure actuator and does not send any data. I tried to use the sendkeepalive() function in the main loop every 30 seconds, but Domoticz still drops the connection. Next step would be to request the time from the controller or anything similar. Or is there any obvious solution I just don't see?
