integration using nrf51822 in Windows 7

[hrg]

I have a ble based thermometer(using Ble -Temperature Profile).I want to integrate with Windows 7 PC .but unfortunately BLE api's are available right from Windows 8 machines. Since my integration environment is in windows 7 , and Windows 7 api doesnt support ble hardware .I came up with an idea .

I will use a ble module(nrf51822) which will pair/connect with the thermometer and fetched the measurement data .The same module connected to PC will send this data via UART (module connected to usb) to PC.

Is it possible to achieve this in nrf51822 dev module(which i currently have). If possible could you share some sample code to start with .

Thanks

It is possible. Please have a look at ble_central examples. ble_app_hrs_c should be a good starting point.
