Wii Balance Board Connection #46

Open BrianAtwell opened 3 years ago

BrianAtwell commented 3 years ago

Hi, I am running Raspberry Pi 3 I had an issue when using the green connect button in the web app. Sometimes it would require me to click the connect button two to three times to get it to work. I created a fork and add a 20 second interval where it will continually connect to the Wii balance board. Once the 20 seconds is reach it will display connection timedout in the web app if it can't connect.

It connects fine with the bluetoothctl program by simply using the "scan on" command. I was wondering if anybody had this same issue or if it was something with the balance board or some other issue. Either way the 20 second interval seems to be more reliable for now.
