Getting Started with BlueNRG Shield¶

This example demonstrates how to use the Nucleo BlueNRG shield with the STM32F401 Nucleo board to obtain heart rate information:

• BlueNRG board data brief

First, attach the BlueNRG shield to the Nucleo board as shown here:

Next, connect the STM32F401 Nucleo board to your PC with a USB cable.

Now return to the Nucleo_BLE_HeartRate project homepage and import the project into your mbed compiler:

Click “Import” button on the pop up window shown below

Compile and load the image onto the F401 Nucleo board

Open a terminal window to display the status of your Bluetooth stack. For this example, set the terminal BAUD rate to 9600

You should now see the various Bluetooth stack staus displayed on your console output.

Test your application with iPhone¶
