Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2540

Hi.

Can someone exactly explain the difference between these two roles exactly. I didn't get that much from TI_BLE_Software_Developer's_Guide.

Thanks in advance

Hi Osman,

If you would like to better understand the Bluetooth LE terminology I would like to suggest watching the "Getting started with Bluetooth Low Energy" videos provided in TI's Learning Center: http://trainingcenter.ti.com/ti/training/sessions?2&cName=1054&ref=category&category=101-1054

Best regards,
Svend

Thanks for the reply.

Let me give an example. If i have an Android application which sends data to the CC2540 Keyfob with using an UUID Service and UUID Characteristic values to access the Keyfob function which will receive the data. The Smartphone is a Client and the Keyfob is a Server in this case. Right ?
