[Device Support Request] H40F Treadmill "TOPUTURE"

[tmeuze]

Hi there, thanks for this project!

I'm hoping to get help adding support for a certain model of treadmill - one which appears to support FTMS protocol, as tested using nRF Connect per this article.

Here is an Amazon link to the product. And here is a manual for one of the same/similar controller model.

I would love to help however I can. Thank you.

Hi.

If your fitness machine supports FTMS, it should be supported by the integration without any problems. According to the documentation, it has a FitShow controller installed, which usually supports both FTMS and its own proprietary FitShow protocol.

Hi, thank you for your response. Is there a way to debug the component's search for FTMS devices? It seems to very quickly claim that there are no compatible devices found:

And there isn't anything particularly useful in the core logs:

I have a built-in Bluetooth adapter (HA Yellow), as well as a few BT proxies around the area.

Thank you, again.

PS: the model number that is actually advertised by BLE properties is FS-BT-D2

[dudanov]

Please, send me BLE advertising data that the device broadcasts. FTMS service support is determined by this data without connecting to the device.

I appreciate your help, Sergey. I am not perfectly clear on what BLE data you might need, or whether iOS can capture it. I have captured the following in hopes that it answers your question:

UUID (Fitness Machine): 1826
UUID (Fitness Machine Feature): 2ACC
Value (Fitness Machine Feature): C456 0000 0D00 0000

Perhaps I need to get an nRF device, or use an Android device, for this...

This data on screenshot that interested me. It is correct and does not contain errors, the device type is a treadmill.

Your fitness device should not be connected to any devices except HASS. When the trainer is connected to any device, it stops being in discovery mode and cannot be used in another application, HASS for example. For this reason, I made a BLE connection switch so that it would be possible to connect the trainer to third-party software.

I have now tried to disconnect the BLE adapter from my HASS server and work exclusively with the ESPHome BLE proxy. And everything works fine, even faster than before.

[tmeuze]

Thank you. I have disabled the in-built adapter for my HA Yellow, and tried my nearby ESP proxy, but to no avail. I ordered an nRF dongle to capture BLE data. I'm hoping that you might be able to help decypher that if you are so inclined.

Thanks again.

Hi there @dudanov. Got a BLE Sniffer adapter, and was able to capture this in Wireshark:

I am hoping that helps. If not, I will do some research into Wireshark, as this is my first time actually using the software.

Thank you for any help in implementation that you can provide!
