Is there a document that shows the possibilities in a HCItester script.

e.g. You can set variables, but how do you use them?

Hello G,

If you haven't already downloaded the HCITester User's Manual, you can find it here

http://e2e.ti.com/cfs-file.ashx/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/307/1616.SWRU136-_2D00_-HCITester-User-Guide.pdf

The Wiki also has a little more information.http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/LPRF_BLE_HCITester

Inside your BLE documents folder you can find the Vendor Specific HCI Commands PDF that details what the commands are.

Thanks,

Thank you, yes I have read the user guide and also the LPRF BLE HCITester page.

These resources give no answer on e.g. how to pass parameters between CallFile, nor the syntax of OnEvent etc.

I am looking for more information on the "general scripting features" of HCItester, eg can build IF or WHILE constructs. Is HCItester based on a documented scripting language...

I see now, you are looking for a How To Write HCI Test Script for Dummies :)

LOL!

I believe there is an official Bluetooth Test Script Language document somewhere and requires you to be a Bluetooth SIG member. You can inquire about it on the Bluetooth.org site. I haven't seen any other documents from TI and it isn't a supported program. It is one of those added features geared towards those familiar with Bluetooth HCI Testing.

For all the functions found in the HCITester Script, by clicking on the type, it gives you information on that parameter.

Perhaps someone else may want to provide additional information.

Thanks,
