... when calling node.dsleep("1000") the unit hard resets immediately, it does not respect the time ( 1 second )

You might have found out already, but the time passed to dsleep is in micro seconds, not milli seconds. For one second you would have to use 1000000.

When resetting via GPIO16, is there supposed to be output on the TX pin, analogous to when the board is powered on?

When I power cycle, or disconnect/reconnect CH_PD - I get output. When I connect GPIO16 to GND, hold for a second and let go - I get nothing.

Some of my work

Helllo,

I have an ESP-03 module flashed with NodeMCU. I tried calling the node.dsleep("1000") function and the unit slept but would not reset, a manual reset of the module was required.

I have since soldered the pads close to VCC as suggested (with a solder bridge, no resistor) but now when calling node.dsleep("1000") the unit hard resets immediately, it does not respect the time ( 1 second )

Any ideas what I may be doing wrong?

You need to solder a resistor between gpio 16 and rst pin. Esp 03 has two solder pads by vcc, you could either bridge it or put a resistor.
