StartNotification doesn't return me callback success or callback error

[AngeNew]

Hi, I use startNotification to handle measure of IMU sensor, at startNotification sensor should me a constant signal of measures, I don't understand because startNotification tell me getData, but after doesn't return me callback success or callback error. How can I trouble?? this is my code:

startMeasureNotification() {
    let buffer = new ArrayBuffer(3)
    let dataViewObject = new DataView(buffer)
    dataViewObject.setUint8(0, 0x01);
    dataViewObject.setUint8(1, 0x01);
    dataViewObject.setUint8(2, 0x21);
    this.ble.startNotification(this.id1, "15172000-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", "15172003-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93").subscribe((result) => {
      console.log(result);
      this.ble.write(this.id1, "15172000-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", "15172001-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", dataViewObject.buffer).then((result) => {


        console.log(result);

      });

    }, (error) => {
      console.log(error);
    })
    
    this.ble.startNotification(this.id2, "15172000-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", "15172003-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93").subscribe((result) => {
      console.log(result);
      this.ble.write(this.id2, "15172000-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", "15172001-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", dataViewObject.buffer).then((result) => {
        console.log(result);
      });
    }, (error) => {
      console.log(error);
    });

  }

The getData log there is a normal part of the startNotification flow:

https://github.com/don/cordova-plugin-ble-central/blob/0732380e27772a08df2c6ce6447b4cab901ad4d2/src/ios/BLECentralPlugin.m#L300

Does the Peripheral automatically start sending notifications as soon as you turn them on? Or do you need to write a payload to start them?

I ask because the ble.write you've nested in the subscribe there will only get called after a notification arrives.

I need to write payload to start them, sensors manual suggest to do before startNotification and after startMeasure, I do the ble.write inside subscribe do start of measure, Do I can try this.ble.write before startNotification?? this.ble.write(this.id1, "15172000-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", "15172001-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", dataViewObject.buffer).then((result) => { console.log(result); this.ble.startNotification(this.id1, "15172000-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", "15172003-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93").subscribe((result) => {

    console.log(result);

  });

}, (error) => {
  console.log(error);
})

I haven't data, I wait your answer, thanks for your response. in sensor in Ios, I have one flag isNotifying that is false and I read that if isNotifying is false, notification will always disable, is this my problem??

Apologies @AngeNew , this fell off my radar.

Yes, I'd do the write and then subscribe. What's the console output of result there?

I'd suggest taking a look at https://github.com/don/cordova-plugin-ble-central/issues/913#issuecomment-1103876933 in case this is a similar display issue.

Alternatively, you might be experiencing https://github.com/don/cordova-plugin-ble-central/issues/805#issuecomment-713639126

Unfortunately, I don't maintain the ionic wrappers, so I'm not certain what's causing the problem you see there.

I trouble problem in this way, I use async await in right way, and I must convert my payload mode in hex to start correctly payload, thanks for your support

async startMeasure() { let buffer = new ArrayBuffer(3); let dataViewObject = new DataView(buffer); /** 01 indicate measures / dataViewObject.setUint8(0, 0x01); /* 01 indicate start measures */ dataViewObject.setUint8(1, 0x01); dataViewObject.setUint8(2, 0x15);

this.ble.startNotification(this.id1, "15172000-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", "15172003-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93").subscribe(
  (data) => {
    console.log(this.saveSingleMeasure(data));
    this.measures1.push(this.saveSingleMeasure(data));
  },
  () => console.log("error")
);

await this.ble.write(this.id1, "15172000-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", "15172001-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", dataViewObject.buffer).then((result) => {
  console.log(result);
}, (error) => {
  console.log(error);

});

this.ble.startNotification(this.id2, "15172000-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", "15172003-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93").subscribe(
  (data) => {
    console.log(this.saveSingleMeasure(data));
    this.measures2.push(this.saveSingleMeasure(data));
  },
  () => console.log("error")
);

await this.ble.write(this.id2, "15172000-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", "15172001-4947-11e9-8646-d663bd873d93", dataViewObject.buffer).then((result) => {
  console.log(result);
}, (error) => {
  console.log(error);

});

}

I trouble also problem that send me empty notifications with this function where I use Float32 right format for my data /** save single measure in Float32 */ saveSingleMeasure(buffer) { var data = new Float32Array(buffer[0]); return data; }
