To display uuid, major,minor values and company identifier using Ble_app_proximity example

[Naralasetty Praneeth]

i am not able display uuid, major,minor values and company identifier(so that we can change the beacon identification to ibeacon)  using Ble_app_proximity example. please say the specific steps to display these.

I'm not sure I understand what your are trying to do. There is no beacon uuid/minor/major value in the ble_app_proximity example, did you add this from the ble_app_beacon application?

Have you tried debugging, following this and this guide, to see if there are any error codes reported?

[Jørgen Holmefjord]

Did you debug to check if there are error codes reported? This is normally the case when your device is not advertising.

[Jørgen Holmefjord]

That line will not generate any error codes. Initializing advertising format of beacon is shown in ble_app_beacon example, you should be able to replace the UUID, company ID, minor and major values to what you want. Note that the advertising packet is limited in size, you will most likely not be able to put both beacon and proximity advertising data inside it simultaneously.

ok without adding both beacon and proximity example i need to advertise my beacon like beacon in the above pictures......For that what should i do?

[Jørgen Holmefjord]

You should modify the following defines to match your beacon UUID, minor, major, and company ID:

#define APP_COMPANY_IDENTIFIER          0x004C                             
#define APP_MAJOR_VALUE                 0x00, 0x02                         
#define APP_MINOR_VALUE                 0x00, 0x02                         
#define APP_BEACON_UUID                 0x01, 0x12, 0x23, 0x34, \
                                        0x45, 0x56, 0x67, 0x78, \
                                        0x89, 0x9a, 0xab, 0xbc, \
                                        0xcd, 0xde, 0xef, 0xf0  

Also make sure that USE_UICR_FOR_MAJ_MIN_VALUES is not defined in your project. Are you able to get the ble_app_beacon example to advertise your desired beacon data?

[Naralasetty Praneeth]

yes i am able advertise  ble_app_beacon example by these values

[Naralasetty Praneeth]

@Jørgen Holmefjord 

but i need battery level also....the above beacon is not mine...i gave a sample one that in which my beacon should also advertise same like the sample one above

[Jørgen Holmefjord]

I have made an example that combine ble_app_beacon advertising data and is connectable, with proximity services.

ble_app_proximity_beacon.zip

I have not modified the beacon values, you should be able to fix this yourself. The example is also not thoroughly tested, only checked that it advertise and can be connected.
