TB1 Bluetooth not connecting? #92

Has anyone connected to the tb1? I'm trying on my pixel 4a and my MacBook pro but not able to light up any climbs. I saw the illuminate message on the console log and didn't see any errors.

If I remember right I did a test with my old one (before I switched to TB2), also with a pixel 4a and it worked. Does the controller show up in the bluetooth connection window? And which boardsize do you have?

I got my microcontroller in the box updated once from Aurora, because there is an older versions (for older and smaller boards) which also seems to be bit unstable when connecting (so I guess they have an older bluetooth chip …).

It's the full size TB1 at the gym, I'm guessing the board has been there a while. The board shows up when I click the bulb. I can pair to it but the climb doesn't light. I'll try the TB2 at another gym in the meantime.

I've connected and lit up problems on a TB1 before. There was a gym that I went to where I couldn't even find the board, but I think it may have had to do with the board having a non-standard name. I think the connection should be using a UUID to connect instead of the name, but I didn't investigate that much.

I haven't had an issue where I've been able to connect but not able to light up, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are bugs with the bluetooth connection code. It's reverse engineered based on the decompiled code, so it does seem likely that the implementation isn't perfect.
