PyACI showing wrong unprovisioned UUID

[a.wallwitz]

Hi @ll,

I have the following problem:

There are three unprovisioned devices with UUIDs containing a 0x0A byte but the scanner within the pyaci script shows 0x00 instead.

Device Print:

BLE Sniffer:

PyACI:

I verified this using a BLE sniffer and also by implementing an Android code-snipped that scans for unprovisioned mesh beacons.

As you can see both, the device and the ble scanner say it's a 0x0A but the python console says it's a 0x00. This is the for all devices with UUIDs containing 0x0A.

Is this a problem in the python script or the serial example?

I'm using Mesh SDK version 2.0.0 but it's still the same in version 2.1.0.

Thank you in advance for the information!

Bye

Hi Andrej, 

Could you give me an UUID that show the error  ? I suspect there could be smth wrong with the python script. But I couldn't reproduce here using F10A941BC7 surfix as in your case. You or me can convert this case to private case if needed.

Hi Hung,

as this device will not go into production but will stay a dev-device:
This is the complete UUID shown by the python script 3aca9665b1fd25c4f6eeccf100941bc7

But it should be (or is in fact): 3aca9665b1fd25c4f6eeccf10a941bc7

So there is something wrong with the 0x0a byte (New Line in ASCII). Maybe it is escaped even though it should not?

Hmm, 

Should it be again the difference between Linux machine and Windows machine ? on my computer it still: 

 

 

I'm using python v3.6.2, testing with SDK v2.1.0 (should be the same as v2.1.1)

Have you tried on the light switch client example instead of the DFU example?

Ok just found out that it's the SerProxy I have to use to forward my Windows-Serial-Port to Linux over ethernet because otherwise I'm getting these annoying Timeout issues for the serial example and serial dfu does not work at all.

But by now I can use my Android-App for scanning or verifying the UUID.

It would be great if your toolchain and scripts would be fully supported and tested under Linux.

Thank you for your time and support.
