 I need to be able to send/receive binary data over this BLE UART Service (bt_nus) on macOS. I&amp;#39;m using the peripheral_uart sample project with no success. It seems to work ok when connected to iOS. Any ideas?</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 25 Jul 2024 06:46:20 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/113329/ble-uart-service---need-to-appear-as-serial-port-to-macos" /><item><title>RE: BLE UART Service - need to appear as serial port to macOS</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/495539?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 25 Jul 2024 06:46:20 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:2c12a3a3-050a-4ef7-92c1-9dd6d9175220</guid><dc:creator>Simonr</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What exactly is the issue you&amp;#39;re having on macOS? Does the MacOS device you&amp;#39;re testing on have Bluetooth LE, as I don&amp;#39;t think this is normal for most desktops to have. Are you using the Bluetooth settings on the MacOS, or are you using a separate app?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What you can do is to use a separate DK and the &lt;a href="https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-tools/nRF-Connect-for-Desktop"&gt;nRF Connect for Desktop app&lt;/a&gt; and the BLE app to connect to the peripheral_uart device and use the service from there.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Simon&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
