WT51822-S4AT -> transmit data to PC

Hello!

I'm doing master thesis and I've chosen WT51822-S4AT board for BLE. I've made board successfully and programmed uC to send serial data to BLE.

I'm able to received data on mobile phone with WirelessTag Chinese Android APP, but now I need to receive this data on PC.

What is the easiest way to receive bluetooth serial data to PC as serial COM port? I've been looking at USB 4.0 BLE dongles, but I don't know if that works out of the box...

    The easiest way to transfer data over BLE to a PC is to use a nRF52-DK.

    With the nRF52-DK, you can either set it up as a regular central, basing the code on a central example in our SDK, and transfer data over UART to a COM port. Or, use the pc-ble-driver to set the nRF52-DK up as a central, and receive data on the PC.

  • Thank you for the response! If I conclude this:

    • I buy nRF52-DK
    • Program it with your help so it will find my device and connect to it with the right UUID
    • Connect nRF52-DK to USB and it will be recognised as COM device.
    • My device will send string data to nRF52-DK which will relay it to PC COM Port.
    • I can monitor, log data via RealTerm or something else like normal serial port

    Is this correct? :)

    Thank you! Best regards, Jure
