SmartRow, no connection

[brokenpi]

Thanks for your great work! I used pirowflow together with the S4 Monitor, but now i upgraded for smartrow.
So I removed the S4 Monitor at all.
Pirowflow is running on a fresh install of Pi OS lite on Pi Zero W. After installing the smartrow, i plugged a blutetooth stick (Hama USB Bluetooth Adapter 4.0, 00053188) to the Pi and rerunned the install.sh. Then i startet pirwoflow SR bluetooth only.
Sadly no connection is established, the smartrow keeps blinking.

The log looks like this:

Thanks:)

I had a similar problem for a bit. It seems the pirowflo starts a session when it gets data from the s4. The same connection is required.

Hey if you had a version 3.0 of the smartrow which I wasn't aware exist, now it should work.

@inonoob I have a similar problem. I'm sure it's something simple I'm not doing. Rasp pi 4B, TP-link bluetooth and ANT+ dongle. Starting app via webserver. Smartrow (black plastic model) remains blue flashing lights. EXR running on an ipad can see Pirowflo as a device and can connect to it, but no data coming from Smartrow unit via bluetooth - just keeps flashing until timeout.

Terminal output without EXR connection below.
pi@raspberrypi:~/pirowflo/src $ python3 waterrowerthreads.py -i sr -b -a

So no errors as such. Webserver screenshot attached.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
