My blynk keep restart after around 2 hours

Need Help With My Project
1

Currently i using ESP-01 WiFi Serial Transceiver Module (ESP8266) + Arduino UNO to make my project, I am not using the AT firmware for esp but i do write the code inside. And communicate with Arduino UNO via serial communication. Blynk is work, I send signal to esp every second and esp does the virtualWrite but after around 1 hour or 2 hours, it stack. I tried many way to solve but no luck. I need help. Thanks

Panic core_esp8266_main.cpp:215 loop_task

My advice would be to abandon this hardware setup if you want to work effectively with Blynk.
A NodeMCU or ESP32 would be your best bet, but it depends on what you have attached to your Uno.
If you have to use this hardware combination then go for the AT firmware on the ESP option.

Either way, you should read this…

Hi, if using NodeMcu or esp32, some of the sensor library is not stable as esp run the background code for internet. So i wish to use UNO to read sensor and past the value to esp. At firmware is too heavy, so i wish to write my own one.

Thanks for document, but I am not using delay in my code still same problem. And the esp is stack after calling virtualWrite. The system able to run around 1 2 hours then stack.

is there serial read and virtualWrite use together make problem, any things need to take care? I am sure code run without using delay

Okay, you clearly know best.

He doesn’t need any help :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
