Bluetooth

[Rodriguez]

Hi, I would like to know with what version of the logic machine I can work this example...

Thanks.

It works over USB so any LM can be used, you just need to install extra packages

Hi,
I want to use this also. I have LM5PMU and i do not see the BLE-tab?
Does it only show when you plug in a usb device?
I was thinking of using the BT820 or are there better alternatives (longer range?)
Thanks, Bart

Hi Bart,

See: https://dl.openrb.com/lm-16.09/pkg/

Try libbleutooth package

Thanks Erwin, will give it a try.

You need to install these packages first, the reboot:
libbluetooth
luable
genohm-scada-ble

Hi Admin,
Tried to install them - none of them installed: error below.
Any ideas?
Bart

unknown package 'libbluetooth'.
Collected errors:
* pkg_hash_fetch_best_installation_candidate: Packages for libbluetooth found, but incompatible with the architectures configured
* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package libbluetooth.

They have to be installed in the right sequence, start with libbluetooth then luable lastly genohm-scada-ble

But this might not be your issues since none of them installed.

You need packages for newer HW version, you can find them here:

Hi Admin,
Tried this - it is working now - everything loaded correctly.
Some questions i have:
- in the BLE-tab no devices show up - I only get devices using your presence detection-script with scan each 5sec (script ble.scan(callback))
Is there a reason why no devices show up in the BLE-tab? Maybe because they are not BLE and only regular bluetooth?
Is there a way when scanning to obtain more info: like device info/name, manufacturer, etc... I was surprised about the amount of devices are in my house -  a lot of them are impossible to figure out (no way to get the mac-address from Tiles, kitchendevices with bluetooth, etc) so it would be great if i had some more info to be able to identify them (who is who).

Br, Bart

Have you rebooted LM after package install? BLE does not have a strict identification protocol - just advertising messages with device MAC and a name.

Hi Admin,
I did reboot the LM as requested.
I am using for example Tiles to check presence - they advertise all the time. When using your script I can detect them (and other Bluetooth devices) entering/leaving the house but in the BLE-tab of the LM none of them show up.
For now I can work with that: your script runs fine, I can check for presence or not.
It is strange that they do not show in the BLE-tab.
Thanks, Bart

Hi, help, please. I can not connect to the device bluetooth. All packages are installed. With a universal profile the device works, but there is no script.

require('ble')
ble.up()
sock = ble.sock()
ble.settimeout(sock, 30)
res = ble.connect(sock, "df:54:50:42:0b:a4")
log(res)
ble.close(sock)

[admin]

Try connecting like this:

Code:

res = ble.connect(sock, "df:54:50:42:0b:a4", true)

It will use random address instead of a public one, this is needed for some devices.

[Igor68]

Error code: 115

thanks It works!

[admin]

Do you have universal profile running in parallel?

log(res)
       ble.close(sock)

Where should i put that code? In Common Functions or in Resident script?

[admin]

Resident script. Never put anything but Lua functions into Common functions, otherwise each script with execute the code you have in Common functions.
