VAR1 cannot trigger the shutter, it looks like sleep.

Question from the user:
--------------
Hello,
I bought 2 roller shutter switches with Tasmota on them from Amazon. I think the idea of using Tasmota on your devices is really good!
Unfortunately, they don't work as expected and i had to write the following review:
"Basically a great switch. After teaching it, it works as it should.Unfortunately, the communication between the ESP and its own chip doesn't seem to work permanently. If you press the button, it also works via the data point. After a few hours, however, something seems to "go to sleep". lt is no longer possible to press it via the data point.Only after pressing the button again is a new % value accepted. I stillhope that it will be fixed somehow."
Both devices behave the same and can no longer be controlled viaVAR1 after a few hours. The devices can be reached via MOTThowever. lt can be "woken up" again by controlling it via the Power datapoint.
I have over 30 other Tasmota devices here, all of which work without problems. These all communicate via MOTT with the Sonof adapter onthe l0 broker.
Your shutter controls are permanently accessible via WLAN and have100% availability, That's not the reason:
