Bluetooth HDI Host on PCA10000

Hi,

does firmware or example source code exist for the PCA10000 USB dongle that implements the Bluetooth HID host? I would like to use it as receiver for the Nordic Smart Remote 2 Eval Kit running the HID over GATT (device) application.

  • Hi,

    It will connect and exchange data with the MasterControlPanel, but it will not act as a normal HID keyboard. The MasterControlPanel is made to debug your link and see if all your bits and bytes are correct, in terms of advertising/charateristics/data validation and other parameters. This is a debug solution only.

    If you'd like to test your keyboard in it's natural environment, you will have to get a PC with Windows 8 (officially supports BLE HID-over-GATT) which has a certified bluetooth 4.0 (dongle or on-board).

    Best regards Håkon

  • Thank you Hakon. So the PCA10000 doe not send out any Bluetooth 4.0 information. I just want to confirm that my Note 3 can see some sort of Bluetooth 4.0 device. The Laird BL600 DK I have also does not seem to transmit anything, so I have no way of knowing if my phone can see anything.
