DataLogger IoT (DEV22462) - Sleep timers

Qwiic System
1

Hi,

I have a few questions about how the DataLogger IoT sleep timers work.

Options available:

Sleep

  1. Enable System Sleep - If enabled, sleep the system : false

  2. Sleep Interval (sec) - The interval the system will sleep for : 30

  3. Wake Interval (sec) - The interval the system will operate between sleep period : 120

Scenario 1.

I would like to put the device to sleep for 8 hours and log data for 16 hours per day. Have this cycle repeat everyday.

Can I accomplish that by selecting 86400 secs as Sleep Interval and selecting 57600 secs as Wake Interval?

If I understand correctly, this will set the device to sleep for 24 hours and operates for 16 hours between sleep period.

Scenario 2.

I would like to put the device to sleep for 8 hours and log data for 16 hours per day. Have this cycle repeat everyday.

I would like the device to log data from 7AM to 1AM (16 hours), then sleep for 6 hours (1AM - 7AM).

How can I accomplish that using the Sleep and Wake intervals?

  1. sleep = 28800 and wake = 57600 (it will be awake for 57600, then go to sleep for 28800…which add up to a day, or 86400)

  2. after having the settings saved turn it on just before 7am when you’d like to begin :slight_smile:

Thank you!

I used option 2 and it works great.
