esb_scan¶
Presentation¶
esb_scan allows to identify Enhanced ShockBurst devices thanks to the promiscuous mode provided by the RFStorm Device. It allows to provide a specific range of channels to scan using the START_CHANNEL and END_CHANNEL parameters. There is a possiblity to limit the execution time with the TIME parameter (execution duration in seconds). If this parameter is set to an empty string (“”), the execution doesn’t automatically stop.
Warning
Please note the fact that in promiscuous mode, only a subset of frames are received by the device. It may require multiple executions in order to identify your target.

Output parameters¶
If no devices have been identified, no output parameters are generated. If there is only one device identified, the output parameters are listed in the following table :
Name |
Possible values |
Description |
|---|---|---|
TARGET |
<ESB address> |
ESB address of the identified device |
PROTOCOL |
logitech|microsoft|chicony|generic |
Applicative protocol of the identified device |
If multiple devices have been identified, the same output parameters are generated, but are suffixed by the number of the device :
Name |
Possible values |
Description |
|---|---|---|
TARGET1 |
<ESB address> |
ESB address of the first identified device |
PROTOCOL1 |
logitech|microsoft|chicony|generic |
Applicative protocol of the first identified device |
TARGET2 |
<ESB address> |
ESB address of the second identified device |
PROTOCOL2 |
logitech|microsoft|chicony|generic |
Applicative protocol of the second identified device |

Usage¶
If you want to list the devices during 10 seconds :
$ mirage esb_scan
[INFO] Module esb_scan loaded !
┌────────────────┬──────────┬──────────┐
│ Address │ Channels │ Protocol │
├────────────────┼──────────┼──────────┤
│ E8:46:F9:2F:A4 │ 74 │ logitech │
└────────────────┴──────────┴──────────┘
[INFO] Mirage process terminated !
If you want to list the devices using the interface rfstorm1 without stopping the module after 10 seconds, use the following input parameters:
$ mirage esb_scan INTERFACE=rfstorm1 TIME=""
[INFO] Module esb_scan loaded !
┌────────────────┬──────────┬──────────┐
│ Address │ Channels │ Protocol │
├────────────────┼──────────┼──────────┤
│ E8:46:F9:2F:A4 │ 74 │ logitech │
└────────────────┴──────────┴──────────┘
[...]
Finally, you can provide a range of channels to scan using the END_CHANNEL and START_CHANNEL parameters:
$ mirage esb_scan START_CHANNEL=10 END_CHANNEL=50
[INFO] Module esb_scan loaded !
┌────────────────┬──────────┬──────────┐
