Hello all,
for what I can say, BGlib as it is provided by Jeff Rowberg
I stacked the BLE-Shield to an Arduino UNO set the RX/TX Switch on the Shield to 2/3 and what is important in the Scanner Sketch is to comment the following lines out:
Code:
// ONLY enable these if you are using the <wakeup_pin> parameter in your firmware's hardware.xml file
//ble112.onBeforeTXCommand = onBeforeTXCommand;
//ble112.onTXCommandComplete = onTXCommandComplete;
Initialize the SoftwareSerial class as follows:
Code:
SoftwareSerial bleSerialPort(2, 3); // RX, TX
Afterwards you should see the following in the console:
BLE112 BGAPI Scanner Demo
Operations Menu:
0) Reset BLE112 module
1) Say hello to the BLE112 and wait for response
2) Toggle scanning for advertising BLE devices
Command?
If you press the reset button on the Shield:
### system_boot: { major: 1, minor: 1, patch: 1, build: 47, ll_version: 3, protocol_version: 1, hw: FF }
send command 1:
--> system_hello
<-- system_hello
Send command 2:
--> gap_set_scan_parameters: { scan_interval: 0xC8, scan_window: 0xC8, active: 1 }
<-- gap_set_scan_parameters: { result: 0 }
--> gap_discover: { mode: 2 (GENERIC) }
<-- gap_discover: { result: 0 }
### gap_scan_response: { rssi: -49, packet_type: 0, sender: D5F7656277FD, address_type: 1, bond: FF, data: 0201060408734E66 }
### gap_scan_response: { rssi: -58, packet_type: 0, sender: D5F7656277FD, address_type: 1, bond: FF, data: 0201060408734E66 }
### gap_scan_response: { rssi: -55, packet_type: 4, sender: D5F7656277FD, address_type: 1, bond: FF, data: 1106A6DA37DEC19AFC80944AD8A80262C2BE020A00 }
As you can see it works fine.
The only thing you need to do if of course reflash the Firmware of the original Shield with Jeff's Firmware "BGLib_U1A1P_38400".
I had some problems initially as well. Jeff helped me out be hinting me to comment the following block out in the Scanner Sketch:
Code:
// ONLY enable these if you are using the <wakeup_pin> parameter in your firmware's hardware.xml file
//ble112.onBeforeTXCommand = onBeforeTXCommand;
//ble112.onTXCommandComplete = onTXCommandComplete;
I think from now on this is a good starting point for a nice library to deal with the BLE Central role.
Cheers,
Michael.
