ble_monitor: [Bug]: HHCCJCY10 only updates once an hour

What happened?

Hello, just added two soil moisture sensors to my home assistant installation. I know the embedded Xiaomi BLE integration shows values only once an hour, so i installed this BLE passive monitor to see values every minute. This is not happening since i still see values updated only once an hour and i have no idea why. I tried changing the “period” setting down to 1 second, no change.

Sensor type

HHCCJCY10 soil moisture sensor

well i could get a feedback from them, but nothing relevant. Basically, the sensors detect moisture, temperature, EC, and light intensity every 5 to 10 secs, and record these values to the flash of the device。Every hour, this data is summarized and a record point is obtained, which is uploaded to the server. i could not understand from them what is the advantage of detect values every 10 seconds, broadcast values every 10 seconds but broadcast only one new value per hour, but that’s it. For my use case having one value per hour is easily acceptable, but it seems a very strange design decision

But if more people contact them maybe they will come around. sw@hhcc.io

Done, very softly 😃 let’s see…
