I've changed the jumpers on the board (v2.0) and called ble_set_pins(5, 4);
but I always get an "Error in ACI Setup" returned through the serial monitor. It all works when I set the jumpers back to 9,8. I'm running on a Due, and I've tried all other possible number pairs. Perhaps there is still something still hardcoded to the old fixed values, or perhaps I'm missing something.

the pdf don't have embedded font.
On linux systems give me:

Hi guys,

do you have any tutorial online to creat an own service via the RBL_BLEShield.xml ?

Thanks in advanced

I see you've posted your ble mini schematic, but not your shield schematic. Would greatly help my working with your board.

Thanks

I would like to point out that identifiers like "_BLE_SHIELD_H" and "DTM_H__" do not fit to the expected naming convention of the C++ language standard.
Would you like to adjust your selection for unique names?

Hi,

I am using BLE Shield 2.1 with arduino and running the simple chat example. BLE Shield appears on every other device with bluetooth (Android, Raspbian and Win10). But I can't get it to pair with any thing.

On Raspbian:
"Pairing failed - GDBus.Error.org.bluez.Error.AuthenticationFailed: Authentication Failed"

On Android:
"Pairing rejected by BLE Shield"

But when I run BLE Controller app from the RedBear on the same android, it works perfect. I can send and receive message using the BLE controller app.

I need to establish bluetooth communication with Pi3. Any ideas about what is wrong here?

When I try to run example code it says that there is no such file or directory for both aci.h and hal_platform.h

Where can I find them/ what am I doing wrong? I just downloaded the library as a zip and tried to use it.

Hello,

the BLE library given with the BLE shield allow to create a central ?

All example I find are for using arduino and BLE shield as a peripheral...

Hi Guys, my nRF8001 is working fine, but i have starting for longer times, after 10 minutes nRF8001 is disconnecting. i checked it but i didn't find any issue. can anybody tell what is the issue.

Hi,

I stumbled upon a bug in the bluetooth stack in Mac OS X 10.9 (also in 10.9.1) that prevents the current implementation of the SimpleControls app to send data back to the BLEShield. CoreBluetooth recognizes the writable characteristic as "writable without response" but produces an error when you try to use it.
The bug has already been filed at Apple (http://prod.lists.apple.com/archives/bluetooth-dev/2013/Oct/msg00051.html) and there is a workaround available. If you want to use the BLEShield with Mac OS X 10.9 and the RedBearLab library you need to alter the characteristic "UART RX" in "RBL_BLEShield.xml" to allow "Write" and "WriteWithoutResponse". After this change you need to recompile the services.h header by using nrfgostudio.

If you have used the BLEShield with Mac OS X before you also need to erase the Bluetooth cache in Mac OS X otherwise CoreBluetooth does not recognize the characteristic change. Therefore you have to switch off Bluetooth, delete the following files and then turn it on again.

/Macintosh HD/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist /username/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.Bluetooth.UnknownHostID.plist /username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.BluetoothAudio.plist /username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.BluetoothFileExchange.plist

I hope this information is useful to someone.

Hello, me and my classmate are trying to create a weather station, and then receive the data via bluetooth. My question is it possible to combine the Arduino genuino uno with both the BLE Shield and Sparkfun weather shield?

Thanks in advance.

As i'm sure you know,More than 20 bytes sent to ble_write() require a call to ble_do_events() to flush the buffer.

Requests like analog mapping, capability query, etc, are all greater and error when hooked up to a proper ios firmata implementation like I've been working on:

https://github.com/jacobrosenthal/iosFirmata

I've forked firmata fresh firmata standard from Firmata and created a redbear branch for now with a hacked implementation Im not entirely happy with, but so far is working for me

Hey on your website it says:
"BLE Shield stands for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Shield. It is designed to work with Arduino boards or compatibles, including Arduino Uno, Mega 2560, Leonardo and Due." but to use a due you need Arduino 1.5 or above. Once I update to a version that can program the Due, I get no such file or directory errors. Is there any way to work around this?

Test Device:
Nexus 5 with original OS (KitKat)

Comparison Subject Device:
Samsung Galaxy S3 (Android 4.3)

The apk works fine with the comparison subject device. With Nexus 5, It could not find the Ardunio BLE device when clicking the "connect" button.
