NRF51822 Dev Dongle Communication while running

I'm looking to be able to plug my usb dongle into my computer and communicate with an application for users to use. In this communication, I would want to see the different communications sent and received, and be able to set values on the dongles code, (ie Heart rate values and such). Does anyone have a good idea where to start? Has anyone done anything like this before?

  • You can have a look at the uart_example under the PCA10000 folder in the SDK. This example show how the simple_uart library is used to communicate with the computer.The dongle emulates a COM port, and you can use this library to send and receive data over this COM-port.

    If you incorporate the simple_uart functionality into e.g. the ble_app_hrs (Hart rate BLE example) you should be able to get started with you development.
