4 years ago Hi @nullnullnul
Thanks for the detailed info.
The only question I have is, how far is the device from your Pi? I've had better experience when it was just 2 or 3 meters away. I find that the Airthings Wave (and Plus) have a weak BLE signal.

4 years ago I think I need to retest this still more thoroughly, as I'm also facing issues outside HassOs with the sensor.
https://github.com/Airthings/waveplus-reader/issues/19
The distance does not matter here, from 5 cm to 10 m there seems to be a "luck" factor there if it connects or not.

4 years ago I've been logging in to HassOs score and initiated bluetoothctl / hcitool scans, both of these can identify the MAC address of the sensor, but still within HassOs the above failures are shown. Basically it seems that bluetooth connection is up and running.

4 years ago Thanks for that info. I'm also facing the same issue with my regular wave but always assumed it was due to a hardware or kernel issue specific to my Odroid XU4 setup using a USB dongle.
Interesting to hear that the Pi is experiencing something similar. I hope that the Airthings folks can help resolve this.

4 years ago I had issues running on Odroid XU4 but I'm having much better success connecting my BLE dongle on an Odroid C2 and using https://github.com/lukas-hetzenecker/home-assistant-remote to pull the data back into my main HA on the XU4.
Hard to determine root cause since the underlying problem seems to be low level with the kernel or hardware. That being said, I'm surprised that you're both having issues with built-in BLE on a RPi 3+ or 4 as other people have reported good success with these platforms.

4 years ago This remains still unsovled, but I was able to satisfy my needs by using this code from https://github.com/hpeyerl/airthingswave-mqtt. I am now able to collect data from another Raspberry Pi which is connected to Airthings device and then send it as MQTT messages to Hassio Mosquitto Broker running in my HassOs Pi. There is one extra step, but at least it works so far.

4 years ago Thanks for the update @nullnullnul . The project airthingswave-mqtt uses bluepy rather than pigatt. In retrospect, I wish I had used bluepy as well. If time permits, perhaps I, or someone else, can port this project to use bluepy. ;) ;)

4 years ago Are there any plans to get this working with the Airthings Wave Plus?
Edit: Odd! Even though in the logs it says it couldn't find an Airthings device I do have sensors showing up in Home Assistant!

4 years ago Closing this issue due to being stale. We can revisit if someone reports similar issues with newer HA releases.
Raspberry Pi4 running HassOS latest Airthings Wave Plus sensor firmware updated + registered to cloud service Git clone 1.4.2020 of Airthings sensor
After configuration in Hassio, no sensors are visible. If MAC address is not declared in configuration.yaml, sensor is not found message is brought. In logs, it attempts to connect to 4 other Bluetooth devices but none with Airthings Wave Plus MAC address. When MAC address is declared in configuration.yaml following errors arise:
