NRF52833 new BQB rules in 2023

[xinglin.li]

Hi All,

We're going through BQB certificate with our mice, and we're informed that test get failed because new rule will be implemented in May 2023.

Our Chip is NRF52833 QIAA-R， SDK ver 17.1.0, softdevice s140, here are the error message:

Fail:                    Characteristic 'Battery Level' GGIT table specified property is not supported. Properties supported by Characteristic = 0x12 but it doesn't match with the specified propetry

What should we do on our side to help pass the test?

Thanks.

To help pass the BQB (Bluetooth Qualification Body) certificate test for your device, you need to address the error message related to the 'Battery Level' characteristic and its properties. Based on the error message you provided, it seems that the specified property for the 'Battery Level' characteristic does not match the properties supported by the characteristic itself.

Here are a few steps you can take to resolve the issue:

Review the Bluetooth specifications: Refer to the Bluetooth Core Specification to understand the correct properties supported by the 'Battery Level' characteristic (UUID 0x2A19). infinite craft

Check the property configuration: Review your code and verify the property configuration for the 'Battery Level' characteristic in your device firmware. Ensure that the specified property matches the supported properties defined in the Bluetooth specifications.

Update the SDK: Check if there is an updated version of the SDK (Software Development Kit) available for your device. Upgrading to a newer SDK version might address any compatibility issues or provide fixes for the error you are encountering. 

Consult the SDK documentation and forums: Refer to the documentation and community forums related to the SDK you are using (SDK ver 17.1.0 for NRF52833 QIAA-R). Search for any known issues or discussions regarding the 'Battery Level' characteristic and its properties. If necessary, seek assistance from the SDK provider or the development community.

Test and verify: Once you have made the necessary adjustments to ensure the correct properties for the 'Battery Level' characteristic, retest your device against the BQB certification requirements. Make sure to follow the BQB guidelines and procedures for the testing process.

It is also worth considering reaching out to the BQB certification body directly or the relevant support channels for further guidance and clarification on the specific failure and requirements. They will be able to provide you with the most accurate and up-to-date information to help you pass the certification test successfully.

The error message indicates that the Battery Level characteristic in your Bluetooth implementation does not meet the required property configuration specified by the Bluetooth Qualification Body. The characteristic is expected to support specific properties, but your implementation's supported properties do not match the required ones.sprunki mods
