I have been working on this project for quite some time , I have multiple versions to track vehicles. this one was more geared up toward keeping up with an hour meter on a piece of equipment and keeping up location if the equipment is being transported ( I figure it wont move faster than 15MPH on its own). after loading the firmware the device seems to work as expected for a few days then the mph will get stuck at 5.31 mph. after getting stuck at the 5.31 it doesnt send the Hour Meter information, but it will still (sometimes) allow you to “ping” the unit via the gpsPublish() function. the health meter through the console seems to still be communicating with the unit as well, but the unit wont allow itself to be flashed without an reset sometimes as well. which leads me to wonder if my program is what is hanging up the hardware. the only thing I omitted from the running program is my device name device name = { } , just omit the curlys and enter the name. I do plan to change the function to keep the publish out of the function , I just haven’t don’t that yet. I know the publish strings are not common Json, I just figure the less information I send about the data allows the space to send more actual data and let the Webhook and the .php take care of the sending and parsing. thank you for all your help !!
