Unable to get notifications

aguileraGit commented 4 years ago

I don't ever receive notifications from Characteristic 6E400006-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA9E. I must enable the sensor by writing 0x01 to Characteristic 6E400009-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA9E.

Verified Services and Characteristics using LightBlue iOS App. Log:

My Python App:

from bluepy.btle import UUID, Peripheral, DefaultDelegate
import time
import struct

class MyDelegate(DefaultDelegate):
    def __init__(self):
        DefaultDelegate.__init__(self)

    def handleNotification(self, cHandle, data):
        print(cHandle, data)
        #Should recieve notification from 6e400006-b5a3-f393-e0a9-e50e24dcca9e

#Connect to device
print('Connecting...')    
dev = Peripheral("df:4c:cf:e7:9b:1f")

#Setup Notifications
dev.setDelegate( MyDelegate() )

#Get sensor services
sensorServices = dev.getServiceByUUID( UUID("6E400000-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA9E") )
print(sensorServices)

#Get Stream Characteristic
enableStreamCharacteristic = sensorServices.getCharacteristics( UUID('6E400009-B5A3-F393-E0A9-E50E24DCCA9E') )[0]
print(enableStreamCharacteristic)

#Write 0x01 to 6e400009-b5a3-f393-e0a9-e50e24dcca9e
enableStreamCharacteristic.write( struct.pack('<B', 0x01) )

print("Waiting...")
while True:

    if dev.waitForNotifications(1.0):
        # handleNotification() was called
        continue

dev.disconnect()
print('Done')

Results:

If you read that characteristic after writing, does it reflect the value that you wrote? In your log it looks like the value read was null.

@aguileraGit you have to write the CCCD enable notify value to the descriptor not the characteristic. You can do that by getting the handle for the characteristics and adding 1 to it to get the descriptor handle. And use the write command to send the 0x01 value.

# Descriptor update to CCCD and enable task self.p.writeCharacteristic(self.characteristic_handle+1, b"\x01\x00", True)
