<p>Node to read from the Ti SensorTag</p>
<p>For this node to work correctly on Linux, Node-Red needs to be run as
<i>root</i>, this due to how Bluetooth 4.0 support is currently implemented
in Linux.</p>
<p>The UUID field is the bluetooth mac address of the sensor tag, this is optional
and can be used to bind to a specific SensorTag if you have more than one
active in range at the same time. <b>Note</b>:you can only have one SensorTag
per node-red instance at the moment.</p>
<p>The topic setting is a prefix that will be pre-pended to the name of the
per Node-RED instance at the moment.</p>
<p>The <i>topic</i> setting is a prefix that will be pre-pended to the name of the
sensor that creates the reading. e.g. <i>sensorTag/temperature</i>. If
blank it will be set to the UUID of the sensor tag.</p>
<p><strong>NOTE:</strong> Only 1 sensorTag can be read from at a time,
