Custom firmware for BLE thermometers on the Telink chipset.

This repository contains custom firmware for several Bluetooth Thermometer & Hygrometer devices. The download of the appropriate firmware for your device will be presented automatically in TelinkMiFlasher.html. Downloading files from this repository is not required. Alternative firmware and configurator from ATC1441 (variant ATC_Thermometer.bin) can be found here: atc1441/ATC_MiThermometer. Custom firmware is not supported in MiHome. But it is possible to work LYWSD03MMC with 'Xiaomi Gateway 3' by first registering in MiHome on the official firmware, flashing to custom firmware with restoring the binding key from MiHome, replacing the device name with "LYWSD03MMC" and setting the advertising type to "MIJIA (MiHome)" marked "encrypted".

The custom firmware can be flashed via a modern browser and over-the-air (OTA) without opening the device and unlocks several customization options. You can go back to the original firmware at any time. OTA and configuration main page - TelinkMiFlasher.html.

Warnings

If you have many BLE devices, the adapter must be able to receive BLE advertisements every 3 ms. UART speeds of 921600 baud and even USB1.1 are not enough to transfer information in binary form in the HCI format. Requires BT adapter with USB2.0 HS. Otherwise, there will be many gaps in the reception.

Do not use ESP32xxx - it cannot work with BLE at normal speed and drains the batteries of all BLE devices when connected!

ESPHome does not work with Bluetooth 5.0 and misses a lot of advertising packets from BLE devices.

For reliable connection and refirmware on LYWSD03MMC, the battery level must be more than 40%. This is a design feature - a cheaper version of the hardware from Xiaomi.

On devices with missing power capacities, do not set 'Connect latency' to more than 1000 ms!

Home Assistant in "Bluetooth" integration does not full support Bluetooth 5.0 and is not implied.

How to switch the USB-BT5.0+ adapter to work in LE Long Range in Home Assistant under Linux:

On thermometers with a button, if the button function is set to Connect, then a short application on the button for 80 seconds enables connection in BT4.0 mode.

If you accidentally set the 'LE Long Range' on the thermometer, and your device does not support BT5.0, remove and insert the battery - the thermometer will switch to BT4.2 support mode.

If you have a smartphone with BT5.0+ and the nRFConnect program, then you can reset all settings to default by connecting to a thermometer and sending the 0x56 command, as shown in the screenshot:

img nRFConnect_set_default.png

To disable only the 'Long Range' option, use the code 0xDD.

The Web Bluetooth API in Chrome does not yet allow scanning for Bluetooh 5.0+ devices.

Applications

Reading Measurements from Flash

GraphMemo.html

To record the measurement results, a cyclic buffer in the flash memory for 19632 measurements is used. The recording step interval is set in the interface. With the default settings, the recording step is 10 minutes, which gives a recording depth of 4 and a half months. During the step period, the sensor data and battery voltage are averaged, time stamped, and written to flash memory.

Setting the value to 0 disable logging to internal storage.

trg_grf

Hysteresis:

  • =0 off,
  • if less than zero - activation on decrease,
  • if more than zero - activation on excess

Setting the pin to "1" or "0" works if both hysteresis are set to zero (TRG off).

Reed switch or button functions

For CGG1, MHO_C401, CGDK2, MJWSD05MMC, a button on the case is used.

It is possible to solder a reed switch on the LYWSD03MMC board to the pins marked "P8" (GPIO PA6) and GND.

The button on the body can turn the light on and off when creating a scenario in an external program...

The state of the reed switch or button is transferred to the advertising packet and events are sent in the "Switch" and "Ccounter" modes.

Setting the "Connect" option has several functions:

  1. Short press for 80 seconds turns on the ability to connect with a device in BLE 4.2 format
  2. Long press toggles temperature display to C or F.
  3. Holding more than 20 seconds will reset the device settings to default.
