Hi,
I have installed as described but can't find any thingy by scanning. With node.js examples it is OK.
Node-RED version: v0.18.4
Node.js version: v6.11.5

Thanks,
Kai

The hint with "flokk" is fine - it is working ;)
Would be nice to fix it.

Additional:
If connecting a second BLE device (with other module) there will come up an error and node-red will crash:

I have inserted for now a try / catch in ...src/NodeThingy.ts line 20 then it is working, but of course this is not the real fix ;)

Thank you for the module!
Michael

I have followed your instructions. All pre-reqs are installed. Am i missing something?

Thank you very much!
I used it in my smart home for almost 2 years.
I tried to reinstall the system on a new device, but I couldn't! it is no longer installed on the new node-red distribution.

Hi

Any chance you could actually document what this node does in the README so that people can understand it ? Alternatively you could remove the "node-red" keyword from package.json, and we won't automatically index it on the flows.nodered.org site.

Thanks

I managed to get the thingy to work with node-red-contrib-generic-ble with the following flow

But your node will be far more convenient
