Reconnect after connection loss

[PatrickM]

Especially during development I often reboot MySensors nodes. Domoticz does not realize the connection needs to be reestablished. I have to manually disable and enable the device in domoticz to have it reconnect with the MySensors node.

There must be a way to resolve this. Send heartbeats and have domoticz restart the MySensors plugin after data inactivity? What's the best way to handle it, I'm sure I'm not the only one annoyed by this inconvenience.

Tried the 'Data Timeout' option already?

[PatrickM]

Was afraid I'd have to switch my device at least once per minute if I set the data timeout to 1 minute. But it seems to work fine, domoticz doesn't restart the thread when I don''t switch my device, but it does restart one minute after I disconnect. So maybe the gateway software has a builtin heartbeat? Even though it works I still like to know why/how

domoticz sends also a heartbeat, have a look in the mysensors class
