Searching for the IDUN Guardian

If there are multiple IDUN Guardian Earbuds (IGEBs) devices in you area, it can be useful to use the script below to find out which device you want to connect to.

If you run the following script using:

Windows operating system:

  • MAC address will appear
  • MAC address can be used to identify the device when starting recordings and it will stay the same during all recordings.

MacOS operating system:

  • UUID ID will appear
  • UUID ID can be used to identify the device when starting recordings and it will stay the same during all recordings.

Note: The device ID used to download your data will be clearly printed out in the log file or on the terminal when you do recordings, and is not necessarily the same ID that you use to identify the device.

Using the Python SDK

To search for the IDUN Guardian Earbuds, you will need to run search_device.py in your python shell or your python script. This is hyperlinked to our Public GitHub.

  • Follow the steps in the terminal to search for the device with the name IGEB

  • If there is more than one IGEB devices in the area, a list, as shown below, will pop up in the terminal and you will be asked to enter the Device Index of the device you want to connect to.

Note If there is only one device present, you will automatically connect to this device. This script will find and read out the available devices. Connection only occurs for a short period of time.
