ANT BMS bluetooth disappears, comes back on after reset

[harrisonpatm]

Hey guys, I'm setting up the parameters on my BMS, and I got an ANT BMS, because I normally use JKBMS, but that company doesn't make one in 28s. Oh well. Anyway, the app works, I've connected fine, changing parameters works without issue. But one weird thing is, if I leave the BMS on for a few hours and go back to the app to check it out and change settings, the BMS doesn't show up at all via bluetooth. Other apps that can see the BMS also can't see it anymore. The BMS is still working, delivering current normally, still shows voltage via a multimeter. Just can't find it in bluetooth.

I used the physical button, press and hold, to turn it off. Then back on. Presto, I can find it in the app once again. For an hour or two. Then it disappears. Turning the BMS off and on again makes it reappear.

It's not a huge deal, because the BMS is working. And I can put the reset button on the motorcycle if I need to do it again. I was just wondering if anybody has seen this behavior before? Is it something I'm doing wrong?

BT has gone to sleep. that is all. once a discharge or charge is detected it should come back on.

Thanks, I'll keep an eye on that. I'm not "using" it yet, still figuring it out, so that's helpful

You can also set sleep time to zero. So it never go to sleep and bt is always active.
