I have an zwave card on my board indeed. but didn't use it.

I will remove it and try again.

ok, you can use both if you get an external bluetooth usb dongle, mine cost about $5

Posted: **Monday 25 July 2016 21:38**

I don't use this card anymore.

I have done this to fix this:
> sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-sys-mods
When prompted to overwrite the config, type Y

> sudo apt-get install --reinstall pi-bluetooth
Still shows an error, let's reboot to pick up the new UART config

> sudo shutdown -r now
Note that we no longer get an hciuart error message during boot

Once rebooted, do:
> systemctl status hciuart.service
Now shows Bluetooth loaded and active (running)

Now I'm gonna test the presence script

feedback on script:

- Update doesn't work when using ssl (htps) because links starting with http
http/https variable in settingsblock?
- cooldown period?
- examples how to change ping frequency?

I experience a lot of online/offline with my samsung s7. while the telephone is in range (even next to it) and pingable /scanable.
I will test it a little bit longer.

pinging works create but the bleutooth not.
l2ping -c1 -s32 -t1 "34:14:5f:17:2e:f6"
I got: Can't connect: No route to host

what can I check?

remb0 do you have more than 1 bluetooth dongle on that system?

Can you run hcitool scan and detect a bluetooth device in discover mode?

I started with a fresh rpi image and guess what: it works out of the box!!

Posted: **Thursday 18 August 2016 0:21**

this is working great for me right off the bat!! on my iPhone 5s
how might this affect battery life ?

Actually I may have been a bit premature in my celebration. I put notifications on the switch for each on and off and it can't ping it quite often. It seems to goto deep sleep and even Bluetooth fails, shame, I thought it had it sorted with this script. Oh well back to the drawing board!

Well obviously if the device won't respond at all via either Wifi or Bluetooth then no script is going to be able to see it... That said it works perfectly with my iPhone 6s, I haven't noticed any additional drain on the battery. Also keep in mind the short range of Bluetooth.

Another option for you might be to use the iBeacon feature within Pilot to turn on a Domoticz device when the phone detects an iBeacon.

not sure why the phone drops off both the wifi and BT but it does.
i tried the iBeacon script but it seems my bt dongle is an old one and won't work properly
Can't set advertise mode on hci0: Input/output error (5), maybe i'll get a BTLE dongle

Posted: **Thursday 18 August 2016 22:43**

It must be Bluetooth 4.0 or higher to be able to broadcast an iBeacon.

Posted: **Friday 19 August 2016 0:55**

Works fine for me, with a CSR 4.0 USB dongle plugged on my synology.
I'm able to detect my iPhone via Wifi or Bluetooth.
But I would like to go further and try to detect my beacons (chipolos), but I'm not able to find their ble mac address.
Any idea guys ?
Thx

If you mean scanning ibeacons, there are also for the iphone apps available, but I used on my mac

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/beacon- ... 4474?mt=12

but thats ibeacons,... not sure if that is the same...

Posted: **Friday 19 August 2016 10:44**

Finally, I've got the iBeacon bluetooth mac address in my synology interface, they have been detected by the system

BUT, because there is always a BUT, l2ping doesn't work with the 2 address of my iBeacons

Is l2ping able to dialog with BLE devices (I don't have any issue with my iPhone or mac detection with l2ping) ?
Thx
PS : I'm running on synology, not on PI, not sure if I have the latest version of l2ping

Why are you trying to ping the beacons? They usually are in fixed positions and the phone uses them for location

iBeacons may not be the correct term. I have bought bluetooth trackers (chipolo), and I want to know when they are at home (as my iPhone), that's why I want to ping them.
Thx

Hi,

Really liked the presence detection script but somehow it doesn’t seems to work the right way. The output I’m getting is:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~/domoticz/scripts$ sudo ./iphone_roger.sh
./iphone_roger.sh: 1: ./iphone_roger.sh: ï»¿#!/bin/bash: not found
./iphone_roger.sh: 25: ./iphone_roger.sh: [[: not found
./iphone_roger.sh: 35: ./iphone_roger.sh: [[: not found
./iphone_roger.sh: 45: ./iphone_roger.sh: [[: not found

Tried manually pinging both Wifi and Bluetooth and this works perfectly.

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~/domoticz/scripts$ sudo l2ping -c1 -s32 -t1 "34:A3:95:DE:2B:A2"

192.168.2.40 : xmt/rcv/%loss = 1/1/0%, min/avg/max = 112/112/112
pi@raspberrypi:~/domoticz/scripts$

Any ideas guys what could be wrong?

Thanks!

That error usually appears when you try to run the script via SH, example:

sh script.sh

The correct way to run the script is sudo ./script.sh

In this case however there may be something wrong with your linux installation.

Try running the command:

sudo /bin/bash

Post the output
