Particle's default connectivity agent is great for rapid benchtop protos, though becomes problematic for scenarios which require long-term connectivity and non-blocking operation. Spotty WiFi will cause the agent to eventually go offline indefinitely; requiring a power cycle Internal clock is not automatically synchronized and drifts considerably over the course of a few days Upon boot, the Setup() will not be invoked until WiFi connectivity is established - preventing initialization of IO Cloud connection related functions will block execution of the application Due to these issues, I built my own class to manage connectivity with the Particle Cloud. Basic usage is simple: set the system mode to manual, instantiate the class, and call Process() during loops.
