Hello,
I'm doing some tests on Arduino's Uno and Mega since a week now, aiming to get a stable alarm system.
I've got one recurrent issue, that could prevent me using Arduino for that purpose :
When I plug in the Mega, it has never (never) connected directly to HS. But if I just reset the board (either on the main board or the Ethernet shield), than the connection occurs perfectly (and very quickly).
In the event of a power failure, that could have dramatic consequences. Yes of course I'm considering some DC emergency power, but that's not enough.
So... what could be the solutions for that ?
Maybe creating some HS event that could simulate pressing the reset button ?
Or maybe adding some code to the sketch ?
In fact, I don't understand why turning the Arduino On or resetting it do NOT have the same effect.
If someone here can enlighten me, I'll be very thankful.
Michel
