The ``ble_presence`` binary sensor platform lets you track the presence of a
|
|
Bluetooth Low Energy device.

# Presence based on MAC address
|
|
- platform: ble_presence
|
|
mac_address: AC:37:43:77:5F:4C
|
|
name: "ESP32 BLE Tracker Google Home Mini"
|
|
min_rssi: -80dB
|
|
# Presence based on BLE Service UUID
|
|
- platform: ble_presence
|
|

# Presence based on iBeacon UUID
|

ibeacon_uuid: '68586f1e-89c2-11eb-8dcd-0242ac130003'
|

name: "ESP32 BLE Tracker Test Service iBeacon"
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Service UUID can be 16 bit long, as in the example, but it can also be 32 bit long
|
|
like ``1122aaff``, or 128 bit long like ``11223344-5566-7788-99aa-bbccddeeff00``.

|
Configuration variables:
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
- **name** (**Required**, string): The name of the binary sensor.
|
|
- **mac_address** (*Optional*, MAC Address): The MAC address to track for this
|
|
binary sensor. Note that exactly one of ``mac_address``, ``service_uuid`` or ``ibeacon_uuid``
|
|
must be present.
|
|
- **service_uuid** (*Optional*, string): 16 bit, 32 bit, or 128 bit BLE Service UUID
|
|
which can be tracked if the device randomizes the MAC address. Note that exactly one of
|
|
``mac_address``, ``service_uuid`` or ``ibeacon_uuid`` must be present.
|
|
- **ibeacon_uuid** (*Optional*, string): The `universally unique identifier <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier>`__
|
|
to identify the beacon that needs to be tracked. Note that exactly one of ``mac_address``,
|
|
``service_uuid`` or ``ibeacon_uuid`` must be present.
|
|
- **ibeacon_major** (*Optional*, int): The iBeacon major identifier of the beacon that needs
|
|
to be tracked. Usually used to group beacons, for example for grouping all beacons in the
|
|
same building.
|
|
- **ibeacon_minor** (*Optional*, int): The iBeacon minor identifier of the beacon that needs
|
|
to be tracked. Usually used to identify beacons within an iBeacon group.
|
|
- **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify
|
|
the ID used for code generation.
|
|
- **min_rssi** (*Optional*, int): at which minimum RSSI level would the component report the device be precent
|
|
- All other options from :ref:`Binary Sensor <config-binary_sensor>`.

Setting Up Devices
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
To set up binary sensors for specific BLE beacons you first have to know which MAC address
|
|
to track. Most devices show this screen in some setting menu. If you don't know the MAC address,
|
|
however, you can use the ``esp32_ble_tracker`` hub without any binary sensors attached and read through
|
|
the logs to see discovered Bluetooth Low Energy devices.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
# Example configuration entry for finding MAC addresses
|
|
esp32_ble_tracker:
|
|
|
|
Using the configuration above, first you should see a ``Starting scan...`` debug message at
|
|
boot-up. Then, when a BLE device is discovered, you should see messages like
|
|
``Found device AC:37:43:77:5F:4C`` together with some information about their
|
|
address type and advertised name. If you don't see these messages, your device is unfortunately
|
|
currently not supported.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
# Example configuration entry for finding
|
|
# Service UUIDs and iBeacon UUIDs and identifiers
|
|
esp32_ble_tracker:
|
|
|
|
logger:
|
|
level: VERY_VERBOSE
|
|
|
|
You can increase the :ref:`log level <logger-log_levels>` to ``VERY_VERBOSE`` to review detailed
|
|
data for each discovered BLE device. This will make ESPHome print Service UUIDs, iBeacon UUIDs,
|
|
iBeacon major and minor identifiers, BLE manufacturer data, RSSI and other data useful for
|
|
debugging purposes. Note that this is useful only during set-up and a less verbose log level
|
|
should be specified afterwards.
|
|
|
|
Please note that devices that show a ``RANDOM`` address type in the logs cannot be used for
|
|
MAC address based tracking, since their MAC-address periodically changes. Instead you can:
|
|
|
|
- Create a BLE beacon, set a unique 16 bit, 32 bit or 128 bit Service UUID and track your device
|
|
based on that. Make sure you don't pick a `GATT Service UUID
|
|
<https://www.bluetooth.com/specifications/gatt/services/>`__, otherwise generic services
|
|
might give you incorrect tracking results.
|
|
|
|
- Create an iBeacon and track it based on its iBeacon UUID. You can also optionally specify
|
|
major and minor numbers to match if additional filtering is required. ESPHome offers this
|
|
functionality via the :doc:`ESP32 Bluetooth Low Energy Beacon </components/esp32_ble_beacon>`
|
|
component. Several iOS and Android applications, including the open source Home Assistant
|
|
mobile application also provide means to create iBeacons.
