Ruuvi Tags

Karl,
Got my first pi_0 up and running. I can set GPIO pins on/off - great. PI's Bluetooth sees my 2 Ruuv's ( another great Finnish gadget!),
but nothing appears in pibeacon folder neither does those units update to indigo. I have my mac address correct. Indigos plugin log don't report any errors.
Is that because I have the latest v 2xx software ? I do see my ruuvi's whit mac address in my iPhone.
Any Ideas?

P.S I also noticed that many of my PSU's made pibeacon to report under voltage errors - so it should be stated to use only genuine RSPi psu's?

1 yes use good power supplies. under voltage is very bad for rpis ssd they die after some time.

2 did you set accept new beacons? In menu

Yes, I am accepting new beacons, not rejecting any and I even got DS20 temp working yesterday. Started plain image and same thing no ruuvis visible.
// Jari

What gave you set accept new beacons to?
There are 2 options
- accept a certain type
- accept beacons w signal > x

All Std Beacons Accepted
accept ALL (=signal)

also, only reboot time variable seems to update...
// Jari

It is either or not or

You have set to accept only std ibeacons
That is a certain format of the payload

the ruuvitags do not send ibeacons packages
They send temp hum pressure acceleration and count as payload and that package is changing at every package

[edit] actually i am wrong, there is a bug..

posted v .463. thats should fix it ..

was a string vs integer
the property as a string, the value from the beacon was an integer -66 > "-999" is apparently false
that happened after i moved get accept new beacons from config to menu.


Karl

ps it is not an either or it is an or if rssi > cut of or type is accepted

Great News,
I started to question myself:)
I installed new version, do I have to do something else - delete props?
it still shows 0 in indigo ( after 10 mins)
// Jari

I was just thinking could it be mac localisation: in scandinavia we use decimal comma and US uses decimal point.
So if thing is a string there is no problem, but if it was number converted to string it may cause problems.
I think that my locale in RPI is eu/gb and mac is Finnish?

Could you do
Open terminal
ssh pi@ipnumberofpi
cd pibeacon
tail -F /temp/messageSend

W capital F
After 2 minutes ctrl c

Then
cat parameters


Post the output. And blank your userid and password fields before posting.
