# BluettiBLE

ESP32 library for reading and controlling **Bluetti** power stations over
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).

It is a companion to [VictronBLE](https://gitea.sh3d.com.au/Sh3d/VictronBLE) and
shares its interface philosophy — a single global object, device registration,
one callback, a non-blocking `loop()`, and a flat parsed data struct. The key
difference is the transport: Victron broadcasts data in BLE *advertisements*
(passive, connectionless), whereas Bluetti requires an active **GATT connection**
and a polled, Modbus-style request/response protocol. BluettiBLE therefore runs a
`scan → connect → poll → parse` state machine under the hood.

The protocol is ported from the excellent
[Bluetti_ESP32_Bridge](https://github.com/) project.

## Features

- Connects to a Bluetti power station by its BLE advertised name — **no pairing
  or key required**.
- Polls the device on a configurable interval and delivers a parsed snapshot
  through a single callback.
- Reads state of charge, AC/DC input & output power, voltages, frequencies,
  battery pack and per-cell voltages, model and serial number.
- Optional control: toggle AC and DC output.
- Supports up to `BLUETTI_MAX_DEVICES` registered devices, connecting to one at a
  time in round-robin.
- Zero external dependencies — uses the stock ESP32 Arduino BLE stack.

## Two modes: connection vs. advertisement

Bluetti exposes two different BLE channels, and this library has a class for each:

| | `BluettiBLE` (connection) | `BluettiADV` (advertisement) |
|---|---|---|
| Transport | GATT connect + Modbus poll | passive advertisement scan |
| Data | full register set + **control** | monitoring snapshot, **read-only** |
| Encryption | none (older models only) | **AES-128-CTR**, key from the app |
| Works on | AC300, AC200M, EB3A, EP500P, … (older/plaintext generation) | newer **encrypted** generation: Elite / V2 / EP600, etc. |

If `BluettiBLE` connects but never returns data and the unit disconnects after a
few seconds, your device is the newer encrypted generation — use **`BluettiADV`**
instead (see [Advertisement mode](#advertisement-mode-bluettiadv) below). The
connection/control channel on those models is locked behind a proprietary
handshake and is not supported; the advertisement channel is open and documented.

## Supported devices

## Hardware requirements

- Any ESP32 (ESP32, ESP32-S3, ESP32-C3 all work) with Bluetooth.

## Installation

### PlatformIO

```ini
lib_deps =
    https://gitea.sh3d.com.au/Sh3d/BluettiBLE.git
```

Or drop the folder into your project's `lib/` directory.

### Arduino IDE

Copy this folder into your Arduino `libraries/` directory and restart the IDE.

## Quick start

```cpp
#include <Arduino.h>
#include "BluettiBLE.h"

BluettiBLE bluetti;

void onBluettiData(const BluettiDevice* dev) {
    const BluettiData& d = dev->data;
    Serial.printf("\n=== %s (%s) ===\n", dev->name, d.model);
    Serial.printf("SoC: %u%%\n", d.totalBatteryPercent);
    Serial.printf("AC out: %u W   DC out: %u W\n", d.acOutputPower, d.dcOutputPower);
    Serial.printf("AC in:  %u W   DC in:  %u W\n", d.acInputPower, d.dcInputPower);
    Serial.printf("AC output: %s   DC output: %s\n",
                  d.acOutputOn ? "ON" : "off", d.dcOutputOn ? "ON" : "off");
    Serial.printf("RSSI: %d dBm\n", dev->rssi);
}

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(115200);
    delay(1000);

    bluetti.begin();
    bluetti.setDebug(false);
    bluetti.setCallback(onBluettiData);

    // The BLE name is what the unit advertises, e.g. "AC3001234567890".
    bluetti.addDevice("Shed AC300", "AC3001234567890", BLUETTI_AC300);
}

void loop() {
    bluetti.loop();   // non-blocking state machine
}
```

### Finding your device's BLE name

Use any BLE scanner app (nRF Connect, LightBlue) and look for a device whose name
begins with your model (e.g. `AC300…`, `AC200M…`, `EB3A…`). That full advertised
name is the second argument to `addDevice()`.

## API reference

```cpp
BluettiBLE();

bool   begin();
bool   addDevice(const char* name, const char* bleName, BluettiModel model);
void   setCallback(BluettiCallback cb);
void   setDebug(bool enable);
void   setPollInterval(uint32_t ms);   // default 3000
bool   isConnected() const;
size_t getDeviceCount() const;
void   loop();                         // call every loop iteration

// Control (acts on the currently connected device)
bool   setACOutput(bool on);
bool   setDCOutput(bool on);
```

The callback is a plain function pointer:

```cpp
typedef void (*BluettiCallback)(const BluettiDevice* device);
```

It fires once per completed poll cycle for the connected device.

## Data structures

`BluettiDevice` describes the device and carries the latest snapshot:

```cpp
struct BluettiDevice {
    char         name[32];      // your label
    char         bleName[32];   // advertised name matched on
    BluettiModel model;
    int8_t       rssi;
    uint32_t     lastUpdate;    // millis() of last update
    bool         connected;
    bool         dataValid;
    BluettiData  data;
};
```

`BluettiData` is a flat superset of values across models. Fields a given model
does not report stay at `0`:

```cpp
struct BluettiData {
    char     model[16];
    uint64_t serialNumber;
    float    armVersion, dspVersion;
    uint8_t  totalBatteryPercent;            // %
    uint16_t dcInputPower, acInputPower;     // W
    uint16_t acOutputPower, dcOutputPower;   // W
    float    powerGeneration;                // kWh total
    bool     acOutputOn, dcOutputOn;
    float    acInputVoltage, acInputFrequency;
    float    internalAcVoltage, internalAcFrequency;
    float    internalDcInputVoltage, internalDcInputCurrent;
    float    packVoltage;
    uint8_t  packNum, packNumMax, packBatteryPercent;
    float    cellVoltage[16];                // V, 0 if unsupported
};
```

## How it works

1. **Scan** — active BLE scan for a device advertising the Bluetti service UUID
   `0000ff00-…` whose advertised name matches a registered device.
2. **Connect** — open a GATT client, negotiate MTU 517, resolve the write
   (`0000ff02-…`) and notify (`0000ff01-…`) characteristics, subscribe to notify.
3. **Poll** — every `pollInterval`, send an 8-byte read command
   (`prefix, cmd=0x03, page, offset, count, CRC-16/MODBUS`) for the next register
   range in the model's poll table.
4. **Parse** — notification responses are decoded against the model's register
   map (big-endian uint16, decimals, version, serial, strings) into a rolling
   snapshot; a completed cycle fires the callback.

Control writes use the same frame with `cmd=0x06` and the value placed
big-endian in the length field.

## Advertisement mode (`BluettiADV`)

Newer Bluetti units (Elite, *V2, EP600, AC180, AC200L, …) refuse the plaintext
connection but **broadcast** an encrypted monitoring snapshot in their BLE
advertisements — no connection, no pairing, multiple listeners, low power. This is
the same scheme Victron uses. `BluettiADV` reads it.

You need two things from the owner's side:

1. The **16-byte AES key** (32 hex chars) — copy it from the BLUETTI app or the
   device's Webserver (Bluetooth-data / developer section).
2. The device's **BLE MAC address** — a scanner app shows it; confirm the unit
   broadcasts manufacturer data starting `06 0F` (company ID `0x0F06`).

```cpp
#include <Arduino.h>
#include "BluettiADV.h"

BluettiADV bluetti;

void onAdv(const BluettiAdvDevice* dev) {
    if (dev->lastRecordType == BLUETTI_ADV_MONITORING) {
        const auto& m = dev->monitoring;
        Serial.printf("SoC %u%%  in %u W  out %u W\n",
                      m.soc, m.inputPower, m.outputPower);
    }
}

void setup() {
    Serial.begin(115200);
    bluetti.begin(5);
    bluetti.setDebug(true);
    bluetti.setCallback(onAdv);
    bluetti.addDevice("My Elite", "AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF",
                      "112233445566778899aabbccddeeff00");
}

void loop() { bluetti.loop(); }
```

The device cycles through several **record types**; each callback sets
`dev->lastRecordType` and refreshes one of the sub-structs:

- `BLUETTI_ADV_MONITORING` (`0x80`) — SoC, in/out power, charge state, event flags
- `BLUETTI_ADV_BATTERY` (`0x02`) — pack voltage, current, temperature, SoC
- `BLUETTI_ADV_INVERTER` (`0x0B`) — battery V/A, AC output, PV power, yield
- `BLUETTI_ADV_CONFIG` (`0x81`) — modes (inverter, ECO, charging), settings

This mode is **read-only** — there is no advertisement-based control.

> Note: the advertisement bit-layout is implemented from Bluetti's official BLE
> ADV spec (V1.0, 2025-07-10). The exact AES nonce/counter construction and a few
> field offsets are best confirmed against a real packet — run with
> `setDebug(true)` (it dumps the decrypted payload) and sanity-check a value or
> two. Please report corrections.

## Examples

- **BasicRead** — connect to one (older/plaintext) device and print all values.
- **Control** — read, then toggle AC/DC output on a schedule.
- **Logger** — print only when values change (snapshot/change-detection pattern).
- **AdvMonitor** — read a newer (encrypted) device via `BluettiADV` advertisements.

## Adding a new model

Copy a header in `src/devices/`, port the register/poll/command tables from the
Bluetti_ESP32_Bridge project's `Device_*.h`, add a `BluettiModel` enum value, and
register it in `getModelTables()` in `BluettiBLE.cpp`.
