[Ernst79]

Can you post ble advertisement as well.

See https://custom-components.github.io/ble_monitor/sensor_request

[LunkwillAndFook]

@Ernst79 is this the advertisement data you are requesting?

[Ernst79]

Yes, it is. But it looks like this govee is using the iBeacon (Apple) format. That is not what i would have expected. Can you get some more of these, along with the measured data (temperature, ....)

[Ernst79]

Note to myself: https://github.com/Bluetooth-Devices/govee-ble/pull/29

[LunkwillAndFook]

@Ernst79 Apologies for not getting back to this. I should have some downtime over the holiday to do some more captures at different temperatures.

[NightShaman]

I was going to open a new request for the Govee 5198 4 probe meat thermometer.

Then I noticed I got the same information as above for it. Even has the iBeacon format.

I will upload some screen shots. The current temp on probe 1 is 73F

[NightShaman]

[NightShaman]

Here is 93 F

[NightShaman]

Probe 2 79F

[NightShaman]

Port 3 91F

[NightShaman]

Port 4 76F

[NightShaman]

Hope that helps. If you need anything else let me know.

[Ernst79]

Thanks, can this be correct? it is the second probe that reports a value. And I have 5 temperatures in the data. 63 can be the alarm?

{'firmware': 'Govee', 'temperature probe 1': 0.0, 'temperature probe 2': 74.0, 'temperature probe 3': 0.0, 'temperature probe 4': 0.0, 'temperature alarm': 63.0, 'rssi': -59, 'mac': 'C6313030226C', 'type': 'H5198', 'packet': 'no packet id', 'data': True}

Can this be right?

[Ernst79]

I think the H5198 will the same format as the H5184. Can you both test with 11.4.0-beta (enable beta releases in HACS). I'm pretty convinced about the H5184, not 100% sure about the H5198

[NightShaman]

Possible on the alarm, I do not believe I had an alarm set that low. The lowest I set it was 95. To let me know the smoker went out... Testing 11.4.0-beta, It found the device, and not an iBeacon so progress :)

After 8 min still unknown for temp, I set the alarm on the first one to 95. and that was unknown as well.

Looks like it found 3 of the 4

[NightShaman]

This was probe 1 @ 73 with alarm set if it goes below 95

[Ernst79]

The messages are alternating between sensor 1+2 and sensor 3+4- (it needs 2 messages for all data). This is a message of sensor 3+4. Can you try another one, to get sensor 1+2

[Ernst79]

A little bit of background, how I have programmed it in the beta version. When looking at your data, I printed the part that starts with 17ff...., which is the manufacturer specific data.

# 17ff  3022     6c01000101c0 01 0f ffff   1ce8    ffff ffff   189c    ffff 1aff4c000215494e54454c4c495f524f434b535f48575075f2ff0c00000000
# 17ff  3022     6c01000101b5 02 0f ffff   ffff    ffff ffff   ffff    ffff 1aff4c000215494e54454c4c495f524f434b535f48575075f2ff0c00000000
#     comp_id                 id    temp 1 alarm 1 ---- temp 2 alarm 2 ---- |------------iBeacon package---------------------------------|

The id is 01 for probe 1 and 2. If the id is 02, than it reports probe 3 and 4 (that is how the 5184 works, looks the same here). As you can see, I left 2x2 bytes unused, not sure what data is in these parts. If you can make some more screenshots for which you write down which sensor is connected, which alarm temperature is set and which temperature is measured, I can probably find out how it works. But keep an eye on the id, that it corresponds to what you want to have measured (01 for probe 1 and 2. 02 for probe 3 and 4)

[NightShaman]

Ok I will work on that. I was out of town this week so was unable to. I will get more readings this weekend. I will try to do each probe with a low alarm, high alarm and no alarm set. And all 4 plugged in at the same time. to see if that helps.

[NightShaman]

Sorry weekend was crazy pants. I plugged in all 4 got them to different Temps. No alerts set figured a good place to start.

I'm able to find the temperatures just fine, but the problem is that I can't figure out when it reports probe 1+2 and when probe 3+4. The other sensors have a byte that is 01 or 02 I thought the second ?? column was used for this, but it turns out it has more different values. Can't see the logic yet.

Do you have the Bluetooth integration installed in HA. if so, can you make a longer log in HA, by enabling debug logging in HA for the Bluetooth integration. Please make a printscreen of the connected sensors temperatures.

[NightShaman]

I do I think when I tried before It wasn't logging. Probably a me issue. I will try again once I get a chance.

[NightShaman]

Not sure if I messed up and should have stayed on 11.4.0 beta, I have a habit of just updating. Now when it connected it goes back to iBeacon. I don't see the option for that beta anymore.

Was able to find the Set debug I will attach. But as it went back to iBeacon I can tell you the temps. Probe 1: 84 Probe 2: 73 Probe 3: 97 Probe 4: 79

Not sure if it makes a difference or not in what you are looking at but this model also has WiFi

home-assistant_2023-01-22T16-09-06.297Z.log

[Ernst79]

You should have stayed on that beta. I'll create a new one,

[Ernst79]

I just released 11.5.0-beta, which has the Govee H5184 and H5198 code.

For the H5198, you now only have to enable debug logging for BLE monitor (at debug level). I added a line of code that will make the logs.

[NightShaman]

Ok will make sure not to update again until we get this down. No matter what yells at me..

Installing now. Should have some data soon

[NightShaman]

Hoping this helps. HA shows Unknown for all temps.

Current Temps with no alarms is Probe 1: 86 Probe 2: 75 Probe 3: 97 Probe 4: 72

home-assistant_2023-01-22T18-56-12.401Z.log

[Ernst79]

This is the right info I need. I collected some of the data of all previous messages, including the last.

• [x] Temperature is clear.

Now I need to figure out how it determines which sensor is broadcasting. I can see it is switching between probe 1+2 and probe 3+4, but I don't see the logic how you can see when it is sending what.

Can you make a long log, like 5 minutes long log for each of the following cases

• all probes connected
• all probes connected, all alarms set
• probe 1 and 4 connected
• probe 1 and 4 connected, alarms set
• probe 2 and 3 connected
• probe 2 and 3 connected, alarms set

Lets assume we should be able to extract it from the second ?? column

02 = probe 1+2 not connected, no alarm c1 = probe 1+2, no alarm c2 = probe 3+4, no alarm

[NightShaman]

Ok think I got it all

Should be about every 5 min.

I know 1st order of business is sensors. When looking through all the data, are you able to see battery level as well?
