I need to create a BLE Beacon that sends data every 5 seconds, to be used with Home Assistant (HA) BLE Passive Monitor.

https://github.com/custom-components/ble_monitor

I have Jimmo's BLE advertising example running in a loop every 5 seconds, but despite the fact that HA BLE Monitor has discovered several other BLE Beacons, it just cant find the ESP32 that is running in this 5 second advertising loop.

Any suggestions on what the issue might be ??

Many Thanks

Some bugs in the library have been reported here: https://github.com/custom-components/ble_monitor/issues
I think you may get help if you post your issue to the above link.

Thanks, but I have lots of other BLE beacons showing up, it's just the one I created in micropython using Jimmo's sample that is not recognized.

Does anyone have a working example of a BLE sensor beacon that can help me from re-inventing the wheel
