Can I use an nRF52805 module like BC805M for a HID device? How?

CataCluj

Dear Sir/Madam,

While I did take a course in Bluetooth I am still a beginner.

I know some boards have HID "support" (RN42 for example) I find it hard to believe that it's not something that can be added to any module.

If so, what is the minimal/simplest path to use a BC805M  for sending Mouse/Keyboard commands from the UART/GPIO to a Bluetooth-connected phone or computer?

I mean what IDE do I need to use, programming pod, library, maybe example code.  Maybe evaluation board, although I believe I can connect the module myself to the rest of my device.

If the nRF52805/BC805M is not right for me (I need smallest, cheapest MODULE, not chip), can you please recommend another, again with IDE to use, etc.

Thanks and best,

Cat

    Hi

    If you're struggling to reply to a specific message you can highlight it by pressing the timestamp on the specific message you want to reply to. It's fine by me if you write your questions/replies in the default reply window, as I read them either way.

    LED_START and LED_STOP is just used to give an overview of what sequential pins are used for LEDs. There's no point in using them if your LEDs are not sequential. In the case you describe only pins 16 and 18 are defines as LED 1 and LED 2. As you see in d52_starterkit.h of the boards files. LED_START and LED_STOP are not used because LEDS are not on sequential pins. Feel free to remove them in your board file if you'd like.

    Best regards,
