If it's working with dio for micro python - then that's unlikely.

Do a flash erase first - there might be something in flash left over that is giving you grief.

What flashing command did you use?

If you used dio try qio or vice-versa..

The baud rate to use is 115200.

Sometimes after flashing you need to disconnect the USB and reconnect.

Are you using the chrome extenstion?

You could try the native windows installer version.

If the puck is paired, it doesn’t advertise any more. So if one device is auto connecting- they will stop it. And pulling the battery it might auto connect on re-power up. So turn off Bluetooth on all devices you have connected to.

For the boot loader mode it needs to be a particular length of time to hold the button down - it’s a kind of tricky timing thing.

@Gordon

I got all excited thinking there was a chrome update for windows... bah

Please can you remove the spam message above?

The problem is that it will break everyone's existing configs. And anyone coming from the esp32/esp8266 world expects the board rate to be 115200, as this the the default for the device.

The issue initially was with microbit. Is it possible to attempt a connection via the set rate - and no command prompt is detected, drop to 9600 and test the connection then?

If you change the method here to get

<form action="#" method="post">

You can then just the parse the values of out the URL string.

Unfortunately I don't think that's on the ESP8266

This does work on the ESp8266. It's the ESp32 that it has not been implemented on.

Get your esp8266 to do a http.get to your remote server. The IP of the request on your remote server will be your current public IP address.

Anternatively, you can use a Dynamic DNS service, like https://www.noip.com/ . They offer a free service - although you have to update every month. This means that you can use a DNS name and this name will get updated to you current IP.

You will also need to port forward on your router so that a request on your router gets forwarded to the esp8266. As @Ollie suggested on another thread - it's best to give your esp8266 a static IP based on the MAC address so you know what address to forward too.

What did yòu change A0 and A1 to and how did you wire it up?

I think the values you are seeing are random values.

Have you tried the arduino code recently as there might be a hardware issue since the last time you tried it?

Done!

And this is from the app:

I've haven't taken any long term readings to see that kind of detail. The readings are instaneous and not averaged. I have noticed after a big ferment that trub can sit on the top of the tilt and alter the reading - say 6 gravity points. However rousing the fermenter resolves that which is good practice anyway. The good thing about it is another temperature reading - it seems I have a 1 degree C gradient comparing to a thermocouple at the bottom. You can tell if a ferment is stalled, and know when you are 2/3 through if you want to do a temperature rise for a diacetyl rest - some ferments this occurs far quicker than you thought it would.

d = new DataView(device.data);
readings= { temp: (( d.getUint16(18) -32) * 5 / 9).toFixed(1), gravity:(d.getUint16(20)/1000.0).toFixed(3)  };
console.log(readings);

{ "temp": "16.7", "gravity": "1.007" }

What's a software resistor ?
Using software, the pin is set to pull up mode which connects an internal resistor in the chip ( about 40k ) . Have a look at pin modes in the reference for examples.

So major is temp in F, followed by minor - gravity reading

0, 62 = 62F = 16.6c
=3*256+239=1007 = 1.007 sg

The NRf can connect and show the battery level as well, as there is a battery service too, so that would be useful to be able to get too.

Thanks Gordon.

I can now see that:

0, 62, // major

Hi, a bit of progress. By increasing the scan I now can find the device:

NRF.findDevices(function(devices) {
  console.log(devices);
}, 30000);

I can connect by service, by adding the timeout of 20000:

var gatt;
NRF.requestDevice({ timeout: 20000,filters: [{ "services": [
     'a495ff10-c5b1-4b44-b512-1370f02d74de'
     ]}] }).then(function(device) {
   console.log(device);
  return device.gatt.connect();
 }).then(function(g) {
  gatt = g;
  return gatt.getPrimaryService("a495ff10-c5b1-4b44-b512-1370f02d74de");
}).then(function(service) {
  console.log({service:service});
}).then(function() {
  gatt.disconnect();
  console.log("Done!");
});

1. The getPrimaryService never gets fulfilled. Not sure what is going on here? There does not seem to be a way of adding a timeout?

2. The manufacturer data in the first code block - seems to wrong - as 76 is apple and the previous devices is an apple tv- and in the 2nd block of code - it is undefined for the Tilt - so I'm wondering if the previous values are getting set?

3. What is data in BluetoothDevice: structure?

4. Can the device name be included in the BluetoothDevice: structure?

Need more details around “WiFi not working”.

Does it show up as WiFi hotspot?

What code are you attempting to use?

Do you get any messages?

I’m away at the moment so can test the tilt with the longer scan. The good things about the tilt is it also gives a temperature reading with the gravity. The downside is because it’s Bluetooth you have to be close to get a reading with your phone, unless you can use another device to proxy.
@Ollie - yes I have seen that esp8266 project - someone was also offering kit to get all the hard to find bits and the 3D printed framework- it can in at about 1/2 the cost of the tilt. It would have the advantage of being WiFi. The battery life on the tilt is not great, and uses an expensive camera battery.

I had used finddevices - apple tvs and laptops appeared but not the tilt device. That’s why I thought I could filter on name.

So this sort of thing?

      NRF.requestDevice({
        filters: [{
                services: ['A495FF10-C5B1-4B44-B512-1370F02D74DE']
                }]
        })

I have found nodejs examples and have connected with these under Linux, but this is not showing on the scan, so I can’t connect to it with the puck.

Hi,
I have a digital hydrometer - a device called Tilt.

On the iphone - using the nrf scanner app - I can see:

{
kCBAdvDataIsConnectable = 1;
kCBAdvDataLocalName = Tilt;
kCBAdvDataServiceUUIDs = (
"A495FF10-C5B1-4B44-B512-1370F02D74DE",
"A495FF10-C5B1-4B44-B512-1370F02D74DE"
);
kCBAdvDataTxPowerLevel = 4;
}

I try to scan from the puck:

>NRF.requestDevice({ filters: [{ name: 'Tilt' }] }).then(function(device) {
:   console.log(device);
: });
=Promise: {  }
Uncaught Error: Unhandled promise rejection: No device found matching filters
> 

NRF.connect takes a address - but I don't know what the address of the device is - none of the NRF apps appear to show the address.

Any ideas how I can connect to this device?

DfuTarg Will be use daily for flashing new firmware.

Name = Puck.js Is the one you want to use.
