Prerequisites

[REQUIRED]

To be able to use the PowerSpy powermeter (http://www.alciom.com/fr/produits/powerspy2-fr-fr-2.html), you need to install the libbluetooth-dev library on your system.

[OPTIONAL]

If you want to pair the powermeter automatically, follow these steps:

• Get your mac address => hcitool dev (DEVICE)
• Get the PowerSpy's mac address => hcitool scan (POWERSPY)
• Create/edit the file /var/lib/bluetooth/${DEVICE}/pincodes by adding the line ${POWERSPY} ${PIN}. The PIN is 0000 for PowerSpy v1, 1111 for the second version.
• Restart the bluetooth service => sudo restart bluetooth
