Shelly pro4PM as bluetooth proxy - no BT devices detected in Home Assistant

Configuration
1

I have a Shelly Pro4PM i would like to use as a Bluetooth proxy.
My shelly is installed with 1.3.3 firmware, wifi, static IP.
I have added websockets for HASS. no mqtt.

HASS: 2024.7.2 (Docker on Ubuntu).

On shelly i see in diagnostics:

So shelly is detecting BT events.

In HASS on Shelly addon i see in the troubleshoot log:

It seems that Shelly and HASS is talking.

However i cannot se any “new devices” in HASS.

My goal is to add a PAX Calima BT FAN.

Any ideas?

I tryed to add:
bluetooth:

device_tracker:

  • platform: bluetooth_le_tracker
    track_new_devices: true
    track_battery: true
    track_battery_interval: 3600
2

Is there an integration for this device in HA ?

3

is was at least.

4

And did you install that custom component?

5

The Shelly proxy does not support active Bluetooth connections, so you would want to switch to an ESP Bluetooth Proxy

6

Hi Francisp,
ok, i tough that the Shelly was supposed to stay in “passive” mode, because it will receive all BT events.

I dropped the Shelly idea and testet a USB Bluetooth dongle into HASS and i did get it working yesterday :slight_smile:
