From: https://askubuntu.com/a/450751/269279 We can nicely control our Bluetooth device with the command line tool hciconfig.

To enable visibility:

sudo hciconfig hciX piscan

To disable visibility:

sudo hciconfig hciX noscan

Replace hciX with your device (usually hci0)

To query your Bluetooth device(s):

sudo hciconfig -a
