Automate NRF52840 communication with bluetooth device

[Teoh Wei Jian]

Hi,

I have a NRF52840 and a bluetooth device. Is there a way to automate the communication by writing/reading the HEX code. It is essential for product testing. Example: Command Prompt

Below is the items I wish to achieve through command prompt:

1. Connect NRF52840 to a Bluetooth Device (UUT)

2. Send Hex Code

If you buy an nRF52840 Dongle you can run the hci_usb sample on it and connect it to a computer where you can control it from the command prompt using Bluez. It seems like this is only supported on Linux, see nRF5340 as a Bluetooth Controller for Windows 

Like this:

Bluetooth device <--------------Bluetooth-------------->Dongle<--USB-->Computer

You can also use the nRF52840 dongle in combination with the pc-ble-driver:

Using either of these options, you should be able to connect and communicate with your Bluetooth device from a computer+dongle. 

Does this seem like some good options for you? Or were you looking for direct Bluetooth communication between your Bluetooth device and the computer?

Best regards,
