Unfortunately if you're using bluetooth readers I don't think there's any way around this - if you were using internet readers then we'd return ALL readers (both online and offline), but for bluetooth we only return the ones that are on

this artical shows - Bluetooth scan
Bluetooth scan searches for all nearby readers and returns a list of discovered readers to your app. As the discovery process continues, the SDK continues to invoke the DiscoveryDelegate.didUpdateDiscoveredReaders method with the latest list of nearby readers.
With the Bluetooth scan discovery method, you can set a timeout to scan for a set period of time, which you can use for managing battery life or triggering an error message if no devices are found.
In your mobile application, we recommend displaying an auto-updating list of discovered readers, with serial numbers or labels to help users identify their reader.

so i was hopping for the get status from offline M2 reader

#

If the M2 reader is off then there's literally no way for us to discover it and get it's current status

pliant moss If the M2 reader is off then there's literally no way for us to discover it and ...

you might be right because this DiscoveryDelegate.didUpdateDiscoveredReaders method not return anything and just running infinite

#

any suggestion for me to get response if reader is offline ?

#

There's really no workaround for this unfortunately - you'd have to implement something on your end to keep track of which readers may have previously been connected to that device and say that they're currently not in range or offline

#

Simplest thing to do probably would just be to have something in your UI that says "No discovered readers found - make sure any nearby bluetooth readers are on"

pliant moss Jul 21, 2023, 5:59 PM
