As described in https://github.com/crownstone/crownstone-lib-python-ble/issues/4, provide a manner with which you can find out if a Crownstone is in setup mode without having to scan for them (but where you have to connect to the device).

connect(...)
# if connected
isInSetupMode()
disconnect(...)

This method has been proposed by @vliedel and is planned to be added within the next 2 weeks. I've put more information on this in #4.

While I can imagine this function to be beneficial in your use case, the underlying issue as to why the existing functions involving scanning are not always working should still be addressed.
