Can App Inventor send binary data to a device via BLE?

[Noguchi]

All blocks are above (yesterday).

Attachment 1: Communication specifications between BLE device and Android device.

Attachment 2: The blocks created based on the specifications of Attachment 1.

Question: Are the serviceUuid and characteristicUuid settings in the attached blocks correct?
The specifications of Attachment 1 are serviceUuid and characteristicUuid
It is a hexadecimal number.
Is it necessary to change this to ASCII code (?) when setting in block?

Can anyone please tell me?

Try nRF Connect app, with this app you can send values to your device.

HM-10. BLE. Arduino UNO. Notify. Bluetooth. AT. iBeacon. Arrhythmia

1.- Get UUID Service and UUID Characteristic. We install the nRF Connect app that we find in the Google Play Store on our mobile. [hm10_3] Service: 0000ffe0-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb Characteristic: 0000ffe1-0000-1000-8000-00805f9b34fb Notify. Read. Write. WriteNoResponse (therefore we will not be able to use the WriteWithResponse block, we will get the response through RegisterForStrings - Notify.) ...but...wait...wait...Name?...MLT-BT05...not an HM-10...it's a fake...it's a clon..…

Try send directly 53 and 01

Thank you for your reply.
The attached blocks that I created based on your app.
When I execute WriteBytes, there is no response or error from the device.
Is there a problem with Characteristic Uuid settings?

[Juan_Antonio]

Have you tried the nRF app?

Have you tried this block?

Try

HM-10. BLE. Arduino UNO. Notify. Bluetooth. AT. iBeacon. Arrhythmia

11.- WriteBytes and WriteStrings. p110i_UNO_hm10_WriteBytes.aia (199.2 KB) [hm10_40] We convert text list ["65","66","67","68","69","70"] to number list_n. [65,66,67,68,69,70] Send this list_n with "WriteBytes". We can also send with "WriteStrings". Notice that WriteStrings adds the NULL character. If you want to avoid it, use the NullTerminateStrings block. // Juan A. Villalpando // http://kio4.com/arduino/161_HM10_BLE.htm #include <SoftwareSerial.h> // El TXD del módulo al pin 2 …

I also tried sending (53 1) using WriteBytes, but the same result: no response or error returned from the device.

[Noguchi]

I also tried sending (83 1) using WriteBytes, but the same result: no response or error returned from the device.

[ABG]

He wants to send 'S' = 0x53 = decimal 83

[Noguchi]

Hexadecimal (0x53 1) and decimal (83 1) give the same result.
I suspect there is a problem with the Characteristic Uuid settings. Can you please check it?

[Noguchi]

Properties of "TX CharacteristicUuid 6e400003-b5a3-f393-e0a9-e50e24dcca9e" is NOTIFY".
Is it possible to read device data using readBytes or registerFoBytes?

[Juan_Antonio]

I don't know what the READ code is on your device, so I suggested that you send
53,1

For example in this code made for HM-10 and Arduino IDE, send 53,1 and receive:
53
1

Try send values from nRF app, click arrow...

[Noguchi]

I've solved the problem with a lot of advice from everyone.
Thank you very much.

Executing the EnableBluetooth block after the Connected event now returns the response from the device.

I am sorry that I overlooked the execution of EnableBluetooth and made a fuss.

[ABG]

Thanks for telling us what worked.

Never let a good mistake go to waste.
