Feeding data into the BDS example

[Sensors]

I've recently been playing around with Bluetooth Developer Studio, and I can see it's potential despite it having a few annoying bugs.

I've set up a custom service by re-purposing the Battery Service for now (For some reason I couldn't get an exact copy of the battery service to actually send any sort of data value despite my best efforts). Now I'm trying to figure out how to actually pass data from read from the TWI into these characteristics and have them update.

I can't seem to understand where I should be putting data to make this happen. Am I missing something obvious here?

What problems did you have with the battery service? In the generated code you can set the battery level with ble_bas_battery_level_set(), which is defined in ble_bas.c. I just tested by adding the battery service (unmodified) to a design with the heart rate profile, and what I set with ble_bas_battery_level_set() is what I read as the attribute value in Master Control Panel.

I agree that this can be complex. This tutorial has a detailed introduction to BLE characteristics, and might be useful.
