mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 1 To help you create your own BLE services, we have created this service template.
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 2 The LED example demonstrates the use of a read-write characteristic to control a
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 3 LED through a phone app.
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 4
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 5 The template covers:
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 6
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 7 * Setting up advertising and connection states.
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 8 * Assigning UUIDs to the service and its characteristic.
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 9 * Creating an input characteristic: read-write, boolean. This characteristic offers control of the LED.
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 10 * Constructing a service class and adding it to the BLE stack.

mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 12 # Running the application
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 13
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 14 ## Requirements
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 15
mbed_official 44:df8adb3bc797 16 The sample application can be seen on any BLE scanner on a smartphone. If you don't have a scanner on your phone, please install:
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 17
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 18 - [nRF Master Control Panel](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=no.nordicsemi.android.mcp) for Android.
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 19
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 20 - [LightBlue](https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/lightblue-bluetooth-low-energy/id557428110?mt=8) for iPhone.
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 21
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 22 Hardware requirements are in the [main readme](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os-example-ble/blob/master/README.md).
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 23
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 24 *NOTE:* If you have more than a single mbed board (e.g. nrf51dk or mkit) you can
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 25 run the BLE_LED and BLE_LEDBlinker at the same time. For more information please
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 26 refer to the BLE_LEDBlinker demo.

mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 28 ## Building instructions
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 29
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 30 Building instructions for all samples are in the [main readme](https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os-example-ble/blob/master/README.md).

mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 32 ## Checking for success
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 33
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 34 **Note:** Screens captures depicted below show what is expected from this example if the scanner used is *nRF Master Control Panel* version 4.0.5. If you encounter any difficulties consider trying another scanner or another version of nRF Master Control Panel. Alternative scanners may require reference to their manuals.

mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 36
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 37 1. Build the application and install it on your board as explained in the building instructions.
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 38 1. Open the BLE scanner on your phone.
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 39
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 40 1. Start a scan.

mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 45
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 46 1. Find your device; it should be named `LED`.

mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 58 1. Discover the services and the characteristics on the device. The *LED service* has the UUID `0xA000` and includes the *LED state characteristic* which has the UUID `0xA001`. Depending on your scanner, non standard 16-bit UUID's can be displayed as 128-bit UUID's. If it is the case the following format will be used: `0000XXXX-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB` where `XXXX` is the hexadecimal representation of the 16-bit UUID value.

mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 90
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 91 1. Toggle the LED characteristic value and see the LED turn ON or turn OFF according to the value you set.
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 92
mbed_official 2:864ddfb70a9c 93 If you can see the characteristic, and the LED is turned on/off as you toggle its value, the application is working properly.
