Today I stopped for a while and my power meter went to sleep.  When I started to ride again the Karoo 2 said "No Sensor" and never found the PM again.  I then turned sensors off and then on and the PN went to "searching" and then found it again.

  Hey David,

  Thank you for posting, The Karoo 2 currently stops searching for a sensor and disconnects when there is inactivity for more than 2 minutes, This to conserve battery power. 

  You can toggle the sensor icon from the quick settings to reconnect with all your sensors as you resume your ride :)

  We should not have to toggle anything tbf, Wahoo does not lose coms with my power meters, my Karoo constantly drops connections to my Stages and S-works powercranks when stopped for even less than a minute. 

  Toggling sensors off/on also disconnects everything else, including headphones etc and it's very inconvenient when mid-ride.

  I feel like it can disconnect to conserve power. Maybe something a bit more intelligent is to start searching for the sensors again once you start moving again. I feel like this is what it does, but I'm not too sure because it only works sometimes.

  I had the same with my cadence sensor. I've stopped riding with cadence now due to this so I don't know whether it still does it, but it is a pain to have to remember to reconnect the sensor after you've stopped for a while

  I agree that the Karoo ought to keep track of which devices were connected at the start of autopause and then automatically look for them when leaving auto autopause.  So, when autopause ends use all the sensors that are awake and broadcasting.  If some aren't broadcasting then automatically search for them.

  Agree with the comments above that this is frustrating.
