Configuring Bluetooth

Hi all,

in the meantime I´m quite happy with my modules and I managed to navigate around some issues with the general setting up (thanks to your help), but I have a bluetooth configuring issue, which most like is easy to solve.
I would like to turn on bluetooth permanently without external USB power connected and with all the other parameters kept to the “normal node” values.

Could someone help me out and tell me which parameter I have to change to which value?

And again in advance.

I think you can use a much long delay of the ble.

This is the command for the python api:

meshtastic --set wait_bluetooth_secs 28800

You can also use the web page to do the same things.

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunatelly it didn´t work.
I set:
meshtastic --set wait_bluetooth_secs 31536000
which should leave the bluetooth constant on for 1 year.

During testing I saw, that without USB power connected the display is off after 60sec.
Bluetooth goes off some time after display goes off.

I think the number it’s to high, try something like a month

actually 31536000 is within the usin32 range.
But nevertheless I´ll try to iterate to the highes possible value.

Thanks again for your support.

Solved!

My fault was not to restart the device after changing the parameter.
Now even 31536000s = 1 years works.
