problem with sleep mode

Projects Programming

Hi all,

I'm a beekeeper ( and a newbie in arduino programming) and for knowing what is appening in my hive, I have buld a remote monitoring system. Data collected by arduino and sensors are sent to a MySql data base by using the official GSM shield.
The first model built few monthes ago works perfectly. So I tried to build another one in using the same code and I'm facing to a problem. No problem for the compilation phase, but when the sketch is running, the sleep mode dosen't work if GSM commands are activ. If GSM commands are commented, the sleep mode workd perfectly. I'm looking for a solution for several weeks but unfortunately nothing found up to now.

So I have two questions:

    • What can block the sleep mode ?
    • Is anyone already eard conflic between GSM commands from gsm.h library and sleep mode.

By advance, thank you and sorry for my english but it's not my mother langage.

So you built a remote monitor, using a Arduino of some sort, and your now trying to build another one and it does not work.

A reasonable assumption would be that something has changed in the new version, but only you can know what those changes are.

    • What can block the sleep mode ?

The existence of a wake-up condition.

    • Is anyone already eard conflic between GSM commands from gsm.h library and sleep mode.

No, because that doesn't exist.

You failed to post your code. You failed to post a wiring diagram. Did you really read the sticky post at the top of the topic named "How to use this forum - please read"?

Did actually buy the exact same hardware for the second device? Do you use unchanged code? If the answer is not "yes" to both questions you should tell us what you changed, as detailed as you remember.
