Fibaro:sleep() in a scene does not return

[Haraldinho67 1]

Dear forum,

 

I am experiencing an issue where I have a while true loop to check statuschanges and because I don't want to make the system load unnecessary high, I have put a Fibaro:sleep(1000) in the loop. This gives me around a 1 second accuracy, which is just fine. The problem however is that the system hangs after a while. By adding print statements I was able to track down the issue: at some point, Fibaro:sleep(1000) does not return and my proces hangs. This is the code snippet where that happens:

So in the logs you see it ending on this:

And then it stops... Anybody any suggestions as to why this happens? How can Fibaro:sleep() not return?

 

I am running HC2 on software version 4.600. Not much going on there, no complicated other scenes, no high loads.

Have you put a tick for the option "Do not allow alarm to stop scene while alarm is running" on General tab of the scene?

Hi jgab,

 

Thanks for the suggestion and: No I did not. Changed it and am testing as I am writing this. The alarm did not go off however during the previous testing period, so I a am not sure if this would impact it. Nevertheless the suggestion is great anyway, as the scene should remain running anyway whenever there is an alarm.

So far so good. Scene is still running. Can it be that scenes are also stopped on entry into the home, before the alarm sounds?

Hey @jgab, I think your tip was spot on. The scene is still running without interruption since I updated it. Thanks!
