This means that the problem code is probably in the event that responds to the slider moving.
Could you upload that event block here?
btw your clock example blocks from the screenshot will not help you to find out, if there still is a connection...
as the bluetooth protocol was designed, there is no way to detect, if a connection still is alive, therefore you have to send regularly (i.e. poll) some data to the device. And if you get an error, then you know, that the connection was lost…
also this
does not make any sense... just
set Label1.Text to "Is connected" there

@eugenejasper968 add an if condition like this
if BluetoothClient.IsConnected
then Send1ByteNumber...

From the documentation Connectivity
IsConnected
Returns

Thank you for your quick response.
To me these two statements contradict each other:
- 'there is no way to detect, if a connection still is alive' (your statement)
- 'Returns
frueif a connection to a Bluetooth device has been made'
There must be some sort of semantic difference that I do not understand. As I am struggling with BT connections and designing the logic around them, I would very much appreciate if you could explain why there is no contradiction.
Thank you for your reply and the many previous posts you have made which I find most valuable.
This means, once there is a connection, the property IsConnected stays true even if the connection is lost.
As already said earlier

Welcome, is this a question?

Please see the Delimiter article in FAQ
Be sure to use println() at the end of each message to send from the sending device, to signal end of message. Do not rely on timing for this, which is unreliable.
In the AI2 Designer, set the Delimiter attribute of the BlueTooth Client component to 10 to recognize the End of Line character.
Also, return data is not immediately available after sending a request,
you have to start a Clock Timer repeating and watch for its arrival in the Clock Timer event. The repeat rate of the Clock Timer should be faster than the transmission rate in the sending device, to not flood the AI2 buffers.
In your Clock Timer, you should check
Is the BlueTooth Client still Connected?
Is Bytes Available > 0?
IF Bytes Available > 0 THEN
set message var to BT.ReceiveText(-1)
This takes advantage of a special case in the ReceiveText block:
ReceiveText(numberOfBytes)
Receive text from the connected Bluetooth device. If numberOfBytes is less than 0, read until a delimiter byte value is received.
If you are sending multiple data values per message separated by | or comma, have your message split into a local or global variable for inspection before trying to select list items from it. Test if (length of list(split list result) >= expected list length) before doing any select list item operations, to avoid taking a long walk on a short pier. This bulletproofing is necessary in case your sending device sneaks in some commentary messages with the data values.
the part with the button1 is out the bluetooth problem?
Hello! Help me
The page is configured like this
When a Bluetooth device is not connected, you need to tell the user to connect it. I write such blocks, but they do not have time to pronounce and are cut off ...how to fix it
You cannot open another screen, that breaks the Bluetooth connection. This is because each screen is independent, in a similar way to how browsers work.
You have other Notifier blocks available that stay on the screen until you choose an option.
That would fit the situation better.
