Bluetooth comet blue - Auth./Pin error

Hardware Home Automation
1

Hi all,

I’m currently running openHAB 2.3.0-1 (Release Build) on my raspi2 and are connected via a bluetooth dongle to my Comet Blue bluetooth radiator thermostat.
I can read , with openhab, all parameters which don’t require the PIN but for those where a Pin is required I alsways get an error message like you can see below.
With Gatttool it is no problem to read all parameter after writing Pin to the correct handle.

There is an option to enter a PIN under
Configuration - Things - Edit - Comet Blue
but I’m not able to find the correct string there at least for the Standard PIN 0.

Can someone let me know/explain how to enter the Pin there?

Many thank in advance!!!

Device pin code definition in the following format: characteristic UUID=pin code. For example:

decimal number: 0000eee3-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb=7638516547981525249
hex array: 0000eee3-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb=[01, c1, 61, 6d, 54, 76, 01, 6a]

Here’s issue on github for added support with some basic instructions that might help. https://github.com/sputnikdev/eclipse-smarthome-bluetooth-binding/issues/14

Hi,
i went to this github several times - but I was still not able to find the right solution :frowning:

Have you tried creating an XML file per the link?

Your OH logs are good, no warn or error?
