 - `MQTT_SENSOR_NAME` contains the sensor name, useful to split the telemetry data if you have more than one sensors.
 - `MQTT_PUBLISH_DELAY` specify, in seconds, how many time should wait since the script take the measurements to publish in the broker
 - `MIJIA_BTLE_ADDRESS` constant with the BLE address of your Mijia device.. This can be retrieved activating the pairing mode in the sensor and scanning the BT devices
+- `PING_URL` used to ping a monitoring service if everything was OK (Useful, for example, for monitor the script with Uptime Kuma)
