Couldn't Discover Peripheral in Core Bluetooth - ios

Question

I've iPhone app and I want to connect with bluetooth device to get Glucose Measurements. You can find the device from here.
After reading Apple documentation about Core Bluetooth I started reading these tutorial. Also I get the services ID's for bluetooth devices from these link here
So I started to code like in the tutorial after understanding the basics.
And these my Code:
#define POLARH7_HRM_DEVICE_INFO_SERVICE_UUID #"180A" // for Device Information service.
#define POLARH7_HRM_HEART_RATE_SERVICE_UUID #"1808" // For Glucose service.
NSArray *services = #[[CBUUID UUIDWithString:POLARH7_HRM_HEART_RATE_SERVICE_UUID], [CBUUID UUIDWithString:POLARH7_HRM_DEVICE_INFO_SERVICE_UUID]];
CBCentralManager *centralManager = [[CBCentralManager alloc] initWithDelegate:self queue:nil];
[centralManager scanForPeripheralsWithServices:services options:nil];
self.centralManager = centralManager;
And I've implemented the delegates for CBCentralManagerDelegate and CBPeripheralDelegate
I receive a notification for centralManagerDidUpdateState
- (void)centralManagerDidUpdateState:(CBCentralManager *)central
{
// Determine the state of the peripheral
if ([central state] == CBCentralManagerStatePoweredOff) {
NSLog(#"CoreBluetooth BLE hardware is powered off");
}
else if ([central state] == CBCentralManagerStatePoweredOn) {
NSLog(#"CoreBluetooth BLE hardware is powered on and ready");
}
else if ([central state] == CBCentralManagerStateUnauthorized) {
NSLog(#"CoreBluetooth BLE state is unauthorized");
}
else if ([central state] == CBCentralManagerStateUnknown) {
NSLog(#"CoreBluetooth BLE state is unknown");
}
else if ([central state] == CBCentralManagerStateUnsupported) {
NSLog(#"CoreBluetooth BLE hardware is unsupported on this platform");
}
}
My NSLog logs : CoreBluetooth BLE hardware is powered on and ready.
But I did not receive a notification for central didDiscoverPeripheral.
- (void)centralManager:(CBCentralManager *)central didDiscoverPeripheral:(CBPeripheral *)peripheral advertisementData:(NSDictionary *)advertisementData RSSI:(NSNumber *)RSSI
{
NSString *localName = [advertisementData objectForKey:CBAdvertisementDataLocalNameKey];
if ([localName length] > 0) {
NSLog(#"Found the heart rate monitor: %#", localName);
[self.centralManager stopScan];
self.polarH7HRMPeripheral = peripheral;
peripheral.delegate = self;
[self.centralManager connectPeripheral:peripheral options:nil];
}
}
These method is not being called.
So the central (my iPhone) couldn't discover the Peripheral which is my Glucose device.
I couldn't find the device when I search for it from Setting ->Bluetooth.

Answer 1

If centralManager:didDiscoverPeripheral:advertisementData:RSSI: is never called, this likely means that there is no peripheral with one of provided CBUUIDs. You could try to provide nil instead of the services-array and check if there is any peripheral available (don't do this in production mode).

Answer 2

OK, I think I figured out the problem after sending email to TaiDoc company they told me that these device dose not support iPhone bluetooth integration.
I tried to connect with Tom-Tom GPS watch and it's connected successfully :)
So I think the problem of the issue is a Hardware issue.
