Message was &amp;#39;completed&amp;#39;. So, except for updating the firmware, I didn&amp;#39;t change anything of the device.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I use some Javascript (appstore content, so not created by me) in a dev-tool Mendix for connecting to the device, and the connection with the device is successfull. But in retrieving the notifications the message &amp;#39;characteristic is not defined&amp;#39; is generated. I presume that&amp;#39;s a message from the device itself? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The javascript uses the&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="background-color:#fffffe;color:#000000;font-family:Consolas, &amp;#39;Courier New&amp;#39;, monospace;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:19px;white-space:pre;"&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;window.gattServer&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;div style="background-color:#fffffe;color:#000000;font-family:Consolas, &amp;#39;Courier New&amp;#39;, monospace;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:19px;white-space:pre;"&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;getPrimaryService(optionalServiceUUID)&lt;br /&gt;&amp;#39;ef680200-9b35-4933-9b10-52ffa9740042&amp;#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;div style="background-color:#fffffe;color:#000000;font-family:Consolas, &amp;#39;Courier New&amp;#39;, monospace;font-size:14px;font-weight:normal;line-height:19px;white-space:pre;"&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;getCharacteristic(characteristicUUID)&lt;br /&gt;&amp;#39;ef680201-9b35-4933-9b10-52ffa9740042&amp;#39;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
In the Nordic documentation I see:&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;To turn on sensor reading, enable notifications from the desired characteristic by writing 0x0001 to the Client Characteristic Configuration Descriptor (CCCD) for that characteristic.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;Is this what causes this behaviour?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I used a demo on the Mendix website, where they used the Thingy without problems.&lt;br /&gt;(&lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_83HFXKeRSw"&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_83HFXKeRSw&lt;/a&gt; , start about 7 minutes in the video) &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What changes did you do, and where? Did you do any changes to the firmware code that is running on the nRF52?&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]characteristic is not defined.[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;When and where do you see this message?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
