Analysed Bluetooth protocol

Two data packages for each measurements are send from the scale to the app which contains our information.

First package is send from UUID 0x8a21 as follow:

1d:80:25:00:fe:80:0f:f4:0d:6a:17:00:ff:01:09:00:00:00:00

• byte 0: unknown
• byte 1-2: weight in little endian / 100
• byte 3-4: unknown
• byte 5-8: unix date/time stamp in little endian starting from year 2010
• byte 9-18: unknown

Second package is send from UUID 0x8a22 as follow:

6f:80:0f:f4:0d:01:21:0c:57:f1:e3:f1:5b:f1:23:f0:00:00:00

• byte 0: unknown
• byte 1-4: unix date/time stamp in little endian starting from year 2010
• byte 5: unknown
• byte 6-7: kCal in little endian
• byte 8-9: fat percentage in little endian / 10 and first byte is masked with 0xF0
• byte 10-11: water percentage in little endian / 10 and first byte is masked with 0xF0
• byte 12-13: muscle percentage in little endian / 10 and first byte is masked with 0xF0
• byte 14-15: bone mass in little endian / 10 and first byte is masked with 0xF0
• byte 16-18: reserved bytes

To configure the scale do the following:

1. Set indication on for feature characteristic
2. Set indication on for weight measurement characteristic
3. Set indication on for custom5 measurement characteristic
4. Write magic number 02:7b:7b:f6:0d on CMD measurement characteristics to trigger the scale
