Known issue: long delays or blocking code kills the connection to the Cloud

Troubleshooting
39

@b3ko, if you post your actual code it would help. If you want to delay without killing the cloud connection, you need to implement a non-blocking delay, something like this:

unsigned long myDelay = millis() + (60*5*1000);

while (millis() < myDelay) {
  Particle.process();
  delay(10);
}

This will appear like a blocking delay (where other code is not running and loop() is not looping). However, it will be calling Particle.process() which will keep the cloud connection active. :wink:
