So there is one thing we are very curious about: is there any cheaper copy of this beacon that we would still be able to program the same way as theen-USTelligent Community 13Tue, 12 Jul 2016 08:28:15 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/57594?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 12 Jul 2016 08:28:15 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:73744865-a403-4e07-a979-7f3dc4b3dba9awneil<p>Well, I just selected &quot;beacon from Minew&quot; in your opening post and got google to search on that - so you should be able to find it easily enough ...</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/57595?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 11 Jul 2016 20:23:46 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:9cd1a1e4-5d54-431c-ae08-6e271e6cf3c6ExcellentMax<p>Thanks a lot, those are really useful. The beacons we have are exactly like those in the first link. We will try that one. Just that the second link is broken...</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/57593?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 11 Jul 2016 19:52:31 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:e4ffb18f-fc71-4254-b786-47ca3b8a8edcawneil<p><a href="https://developer.mbed.org/users/MarceloSalazar/notebook/programming-a-minibeacon-bluetooth-module-nordic-n/">developer.mbed.org/.../</a></p> <p><a href="https://learnit.itu.dk/pluginfile.php/134275/mod.../Instructions_MiniBeacon_2.03.pdf">learnit.itu.dk/.../Instructions_MiniBeacon_2.03.pdf</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.beaconzone.co.uk/minewtechnical">www.beaconzone.co.uk/minewtechnical</a></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/57592?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 11 Jul 2016 19:01:07 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:ddd63cae-4dd5-44cc-b409-8ebe4a50c137awneil<p>So what, exactly, is this &quot;beacon from Minew&quot;? Does it contain the same chip as the Nordic beacon? Is all of the rest of it&#39;s hardware the same?</p> <p>How did you try to program them? Was the programming successful?
