Question: What is necessary to modify your python script to work with a Beurer BF 700? #82

Fully working Javacode can be found here with many protocol details: https://github.com/oliexdev/openScale/blob/dce3e512b099ebd613c23620738e7abb8194d782/android_app/app/src/main/java/com/health/openscale/core/bluetooth/BluetoothBeurerSanitas.java

Can you give me a hint what would be neede to modify your script to work with a BF 700?

Thank you so much for any help!

@linuxlurak You would need to find out (from the openScale example) how the BF700 is controlled over Bluetooth. A quick look there shows that at least the BF700 operates in a very different way. Why not use their code? It looks very nice.

Thanks for your answer! Yes, their code looks very nice. I'm not capable of translating Java to Python... And I don't understand the BF 700's protocol, it seems. But it's a good hint that you told me the BF 700 works very different. So I can safely presume I will not be able to modify your code to work with this scale ;) It's simple lack of knowledge on my side.
