How to support Ble FTMP profile

[Linxi]

Dear Nordic ：

I want FTMP (Fitness Machine Profile)  to be supported in my product (A smart trainer uses NRF52832, called Gravat in Ant+ official website).

I find that Fitness Machine Profile is noted to be supported in this page ：http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.sdk%2Fdita%2Fsdk%2Fnrf5_sdk.html

How can I get the example code for FTMP just like other ble services example codes supplied in SDK ?

Hi Linxi,

The link you sent does not lead to anything fitness machine profile related unfortunately. I have been unable to find any example related to FTMP in the Nordic SDK or on the infocenter. The only link I found was on the Bluetooth SIG website here. Could you send me the link you were referring to please?

Kind Regards,

Bjørn

Hi  Bjorn：
I can find "Fitness Machine Profile" in Nordic Documentation.

I can't find any example related to FTMP in the Nordic SDK too.

Currently,I am developing FTMP profile code refer to CSC profile source code in SDK 13.1，NRF528332. 

As Nrf_connet doesn't  recognize Fitness Machine . Can you give me some information about products/apps  support Fitness Machine profile? 

[Linxi]

I think i am familiar with the procedure how to add a service and related characteristics.

UUID 0x1826 is defined for FTMP by SIG, I don't think you can find it in header file because Noridic SDK does't support it currently.If there is no implementation of FTMP profile , how can Nrf_connect to recognize FTMP device ?

SDK 13.1 is the newest one when we were developing Gravat last year.

I just want to know whether Nordic will implement FTMP profile int the futhure.

The fitness machine service (FTMS) was added in nrf connect version 4.12. If you have not yet updated to nrf connect v 4.12 or later, I would try this & add the FTMS to your example. Does this answer your question?

[Linxi]

I am very grateful for your support.

I want to confirm that which paltform is v4.12 is used on? Andriod or ios or PC？

I can't find it in Appstore.

Thanks very much.

Hai Linxi,

Its interesting that I am working in almost a same kind of project in 2020. I am really stuck with FTMP profile development. Can you suggest me some tips and reference to start developing the code. An App was developed already by one of my college and now I need to match the profile, service and characteristics. 

I am not trying to develop the code in CSC example as you suggested but I find it difficult to understand. Is there any other better example to develop FTMP? Is it possible to get an example code for the FTMP?

Thank you,

Adarsh
