Hello, I’m new to the group today. I bought a Model S in March and started using Teslafi not long after. I set up Teslafi based on a number of online recommendations and the car never goes to sleep other than a Deep Sleep. It seems to be a moving target. I’ve turned the token off for a night, disabled the overheat setting. I only have the Tesla app on my iPhone. Nothing seems to help. Attached are my current sleep settings. I’ve been losing about 10 miles or so a night. Any help Is much appreciated.
TeslaFi Sleep Mode
Enabled:
CHECKED
TeslaFi sleep mode works by pausing the polling of data from the vehicle for a specific amount of time to allow the car to go to sleep. A detailed description on how sleep modes work can be found
here
If your car does not sleep with the settings above please read
here for other steps to help your vehicle sleep.
Time To Try Sleeping:
20
Specify the amount of time TeslaFi will try to put your car to sleep for. If the car does not fall asleep during this time polling will start again. Not all sleep attempts will work so the default 15 mins is recommended to insure TeslaFi does not miss any activity.
Do not check the vehicle state during sleep attempt:
CHECKED
When enabled TeslaFi will not check to see if the vehicle has gone to sleep during the time to try sleeping. This turns off all logging during the time to try sleeping.
Idle Time Before Trying To Sleep:
30
Specify the amount of time TeslaFi will wait until trying to put your car asleep after a drive. The recommended amount of time is 30 minutes to insure that TeslaFi does not stop polling data and attempt to put the car to sleep during short trips.
Enable Retry Idle Timer
UNCHECKED : Time:
15
Enable and specify an idle time before trying to sleep to use after the initial sleep attempt fails. For example, after arriving at work the first sleep attempt will occur after 30 minutes of being idle. The next sleep attempts will occur every 15 minutes. This number must be lower than the idle time before trying to sleep.
Reset Idle Timer When Offline:
UNCHECKED
Try To Sleep Requirements:
No Outside Temperature Reading:
UNCHECKED
No Inside Temperature Reading:
UNCHECKED
No Shift State Reading:
UNCHECKED
Some firmware versions stop reporting inside or outside temperatures or the vehicles shift state before the car is ready to sleep. Enabling these options will wait for these readings to stop being reported before attempting to put the car to sleep. If your vehicle does not attempt to sleep at all during the day you may need to uncheck one or all of these options. You can view the reporting of these data points in Help->Raw Data Feed
Nighttime TeslaFi Sleep Mode
During the night you probably do not need TeslaFi to wait 30 minutes between sleep attempts or wait for the temperature readings to stop being reported before attempting to put the vehicle to sleep. Enable Scheduled Sleep Mode to ignore these things and constantly attempt to put the vehicle asleep during the times below.
Your vehicle must be parked in a tagged location with Nighttime TeslaFi Sleep Mode enabled for this feature to work.
Enabled:
CHECKED
Start Sleeping At:
10:00PM
End Sleeping At:
6:00AM
Do not check the vehicle state during Nighttime Sleep Mode:
UNCHECKED
When enabled TeslaFi will not check to see if the vehicle has gone to sleep during the Nighttime Sleep Mode hours. This turns off all logging during the this time.
Deep Sleep Mode
This mode will disable logging during the times specified below. This is useful for overnight hours when you will not be driving or charging.
Your vehicle must be parked in a tagged location with Deep Sleep Mode enabled for this feature to work.
Enabled:
CHECKED
Start Sleeping At:
10:00PM
End Sleeping At:
6:00AM
Do not check the vehicle state during Deep Sleep Mode:
UNCHECKED
When enabled TeslaFi will not check to see if the vehicle has gone to sleep during the Deep Sleep Mode hours. This turns off all logging during the this time.
Advanced
Polling Time While Idle:
1
Enter how often you would like TeslaFi to poll for data during idle sessions. A time of 1 minute will poll every minute. A time of 2 minutes will poll one time every two minutes, or every other minute. 1 minute is the default and recommended setting. Adjusting this number to more than one minute may result in missed data, scheduling issues and incorrect notifications.
Show offline as asleep:
CHECKED
Some firmware versions may report the vehicle as offline when it may actually be asleep. When this option is enabled TeslaFi will indicate offline sessions as being asleep when the vehicle was in an idle session.
