@jmahesh Hi, I tried it too and it's working. Thank You!

thanks, i'm reading the python resource online

I'm glad you resolved your problems. I'll post back in this thread when I know the issue with the newer firmware is resolved.

The MAC address printed on your beacons is just a nicely formatted version in hexadecimal of the 6 byte address. What you get from Python are the actual 6 bytes themselves (hence the b' at the start) and when you print them they get turned into the correspond ASCII characters for that value (or \xYY if it's not a printable character) You can use the binascii.hexlify function to turn each of those bytes into hexadecimal and make a string which is closer to what you have. For example your b'FS\xbd\x8c\xd2\x11' >>> import binascii >>> binascii.hexlify(b'FS\xbd\x8c\xd2\x11') b'4653bd8cd211' So this address is 46:53:bd:8c:d2:11 Of course you can split into pairs, add the colons and make all letters uppercase too using standard string manipulation.

Hi, have you find out how to discover Bluetooth Mac address? i cannot find this information nowhere. machine.unique_id and network.WLAN().mac() commands give the same mac address but if you put the device in ble advertising mode and scan the traffic with an Android app, you can see it is different from the previous ones.

@alidaf Nope that's not supported and unlikely to be in the near future. If you need more than 31 bytes I recommend establishing a BLE connection and transferring data through characteristics..

@panos29 i have used e.g. HC05 it is comunicating throught RX/TX i do not know if can be something simpler..

@panos29 It's more about the ADC range, which is about 0.07 - 1.1V for the reading between 0 and 4096. I assume you would always need some kind of pre-amplifier/buffer, at least to protect the esp32 against damage,, and if you do not need to take values at hight speed, you can always use averaging to reduce the noise. The esp32 chip is told to have a built-in preamplifier, but that is not supported by Micropython, and I do not know whether it works.

@robert-hh Thats great. Have skipped my attention so far... Thanks!

@ekwus Thanks for the response. What kind of data rate is it possible to achieve using BLE?

Did you got any advise / response on creating an iBeacon with the WiPy2.0? Or did you figured it out yourself...?

@Arthur I did a scan with an Ubertooth One laying around, just to confirm that my embc02 is working and to trace the exact content of its advertisements (hope will be useful for someone). systime=1503417955 freq=2402 addr=8e89bed6 delta_t=1008.339 ms rssi=-39 02 25 b4 46 0b ee f3 0c 0f 09 45 4d 42 65 61 63 6f 6e 31 38 30 39 31 00 0e ff 5a 00 bf f8 30 32 29 00 07 d2 e1 c0 01 23 21 3f Advertising / AA 8e89bed6 (valid)/ 37 bytes Channel Index: 37 Type: ADV_NONCONN_IND AdvA: 0c:f3:ee:0b:46:b4 (public) AdvData: 0f 09 45 4d 42 65 61 63 6f 6e 31 38 30 39 31 00 0e ff 5a 00 bf f8 30 32 29 00 07 d2 e1 c0 01 Type 09 (Complete Local Name) EMBeacon18091.

@chrisi yes, you can use the USB port (as a serial port) and have access to the REPL or to update files using Atom/Pymkr for instance. An alternative would be to include code which enables Wi-Fi on some specific event, such as a press of the button on the expansion board or Pysense.

@wituwitu Did you find a way to solve this problem ? I'm having the same issue, I'm pretty sure I'm doing something wrong but I cannot find a solution

@jmarcelino it sure would be very interesting but unfortunately i work almost alone and I have 3/4 months to get the things full working, and i was lucky enogh to start the project in summer season. I hope the gpy/fipy will be released before september so i can build the lte support for it or i'll have to deal with another problem lol

@scott Thank you for you reply. I tested the server side notifications yesterday and my first tests worked so it looks good so far.
