Logging data from custom services

[mmnano]

Hello,

We have a wearable-type device with custom BLE services and characteristics. We would like to log all data from our services on a PC. Would you happen to know of an efficient way to do it ?

Thank you for your help.

Hi 

Have you checked out the nRF Connect for Desktop Bluetooth application?

It allows you to connect to a device and receive updates, which can be stored to file later on. 

It doesn't give you a lot of control over the data format unfortunately, and you will get quite a lot of data overhead (like a timestamp and message header for each data update). 

In order to get more control you can use the pc-ble-driver, but in this case you need to write an application on the PC side to establish the connection, receive data, and store it to a file. 

Best regards

The pc-ble-driver was what I was looking for. Thank you very much.

Good to hear the pc-ble-driver will fit your needs. I will close the case then
