I assume the Ruuvitags are sending data constantly, and that Signal K (via the signalk-ruuvitag-plugin) is not recognizing the data. Of the two tags I bought a week ago, the one that I did not update the firmware on is recognized first, usually directly after Signal K is launched. On the second tag I updated the firmware to 3.29.0 and it will show up hours later if i leave things alone.
Eventually both tags will quit updating in the Signal K data browser for some unknown reason if I am using other processes on the RPi. I wonder if the sudo setcap command is not persistent, and/or the RPi is dropping the BLE signal. The tags are one foot away and the Pi is in a plastic case, so distance is not the issue.
Would an external USB Bluetooth BLE adapter make a difference?
