Btle treadmill

[Gaucho]

We are treadmill developers and we want­ to include bluetooth capability to our ­products. We found, on the bluetooth website the ­RSC characteristic ( Running Speed and C­adence) that will allow us to send speed­ and cumulative distance, according to t­he standard. We can not find how to send out the inc­lination of the treadmill. Do you know if there is a standard for ­this or if we can follow some manufactur­er protocol? We suppose to use Nordic bluetooth boar­d for arduino to start the development. Thank you for your support.­ Regards­ Emanuele­

To my knowledge, there is no BLE profile that includes the inclination of a treadmill.

What I would recommend you to do is to create a custom profile one of the following ways:

• Create a profile containing two services: the Bluetooth SIG defined RCS and a proprietary service for the treadmill inclination.

• Create a new RSC service with a proprietary UUID. Inside the "new" RSC service you have the Bluetooth SIG defined RSC content plus a new "incline treadmill" characteristic.

For how to create services with proprietary UUID, I would recommend you to take a look at the ble_app_uart example in the SDK.
