Bluetooth Low Energy

Since Software version 4.4.0.100 all netmodule device supports Bluetooth Low Energy via SDK. The following step by step description will guide you to configure a BLE Scanner on a NB800.

Since the latest version 4.4.0.100 all netmodule device provide a Bluetooth Interface on the WEB - GUI. For using Bluetooth via SDK you need to change mode from “Virtualisation” to “SDK” environment:

Afterwards you can run the following BLE Script, which is scanning available BLE Tags in the surroundings.

BLE_Scan.are

nb_bt_mode(BT1, BT_MODE_SCAN);
for (i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
    
    devices = nb_bt_dev_list(BT1);
    printf("%d: %d\n", i, length(devices));
    for (d = 0; d < length(devices); d++) {
        dev_info = nb_bt_dev_info(BT1, devices[d]);
      
    }
    sleep(1);
}
nb_bt_mode(BT1, BT_MODE_OFF);

The script is scanning the surrounded available BLE device/tags and will show you the bluetooth advertising data. It will stop automatically after 20 detected devices/tags.
