HID in CENTRAL mode

[yuval]

Hi !

As proof of concept i need to connect BLE keyboard which working as HID pheripheral to my CENTRAL unit.

I write the CENTRAL part !
As far as i searched i didn't find any HID implements for central mode.

I need only this basic things : !!!

When i press "1" on the keyboard i want led number 1 on my unit to turn on.
When i release button "1" the led should go off....
When i press "2" on the keyboard i want led number 2 on my unit to turn on.
When i release button "2" the led should go off....

The questions:
1) Do you got any HID example for CENTRAL mode.
2) If not, I don't need all the things that HID gives but to receive 1 & 2 keys i wrote about..
    Can you give any guidelines how to implemnt this?

Best regards, Yuval

Hi Yuval,  

1) Do you got any HID example for CENTRAL mode.

No, we do not have any BLE Central HID examples. 

2) If not, I don't need all the things that HID gives but to receive 1 & 2 keys i wrote about..

 Have you tried with the Blinky Example? 

Best regards,

The Blinky example uses other services & charecaristics and based on LBS.

I just wanted to know on what services & charecaristics i should look and if it possible to handle what i need without implmenting HID on the central side ?!.

 I'm not sure what you want. Can you please elaborate on what you are looking for? The best way is to look at the BLE Central examples we have and base your project on those
