How to Set Up Another Notify Characteristic?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2650, CC2540, CC-DEBUGGER, CC2541

Hello,

I am working on CC2650 while two weeks. Currently, I'm trying to add characteristic 6 that almost the same with characteristic 4 into SimpleBLEPeriperal project, but it can not notify anymore.

Bellow is the package sniffer info. That can see the client already written a value with "0x0001" to handle 0x0032 to trigger NOTIFY event, but not work.

Of course, I add sub-routine in "SimpleBLEPeripheral_performPeriodicTask()", likes below:

static uint8_t count = 0;

SimpleProfile_SetParameter(SIMPLEPROFILE_CHAR6, sizeof(uint8_t), &count);

count++;

If there are some missing to do?

  • Hello Isaac,
    Have you updated the simpleProfileAttrTbl to include characteristic 6?
    Please connect with BTool and show me how your attribute table looks like. Here is a picture that guide you on how to list all the attributes:

  • Hello Eirik,

    Is BTool using the CC2540 USB dongle to load GATT characteristic table, right? Then..

    How to program CC2540 USB dongle from package sniffer to BTool purpose? 

    I found the reason why the Characteristic 6 does not notify, show as below:

    static bStatus_t simpleProfile_ReadAttrCB( uint16 connHandle, gattAttribute_t *pAttr, 
                                               uint8 *pValue, uint8 *pLen, uint16 offset,
                                               uint8 maxLen, uint8 method )
    {
      bStatus_t status = SUCCESS;
    
      // If attribute permissions require authorization to read, return error
      if ( gattPermitAuthorRead( pAttr->permissions ) )
      {
        // Insufficient authorization
        return ( ATT_ERR_INSUFFICIENT_AUTHOR );
      }
      
      // Make sure it's not a blob operation (no attributes in the profile are long)
      if ( offset > 0 )
      {
        return ( ATT_ERR_ATTR_NOT_LONG );
      }
     
      if ( pAttr->type.len == ATT_BT_UUID_SIZE )
      {
        // 16-bit UUID
        uint16 uuid = BUILD_UINT16( pAttr->type.uuid[0], pAttr->type.uuid[1]);
        switch ( uuid )
        {
          // No need for "GATT_SERVICE_UUID" or "GATT_CLIENT_CHAR_CFG_UUID" cases;
          // gattserverapp handles those reads
    
          // characteristics 1 and 2 have read permissions
          // characteritisc 3 does not have read permissions; therefore it is not
          //   included here
          // characteristic 4 does not have read permissions, but because it
          //   can be sent as a notification, it is included here
          case SIMPLEPROFILE_CHAR1_UUID:
          case SIMPLEPROFILE_CHAR2_UUID:
          case SIMPLEPROFILE_CHAR4_UUID:
    //+++Isaac.Lo
          case SIMPLEPROFILE_CHAR6_UUID:
    //---Isaac.Lo
            *pLen = 1;
            pValue[0] = *pAttr->pValue;
            break;
    
          case SIMPLEPROFILE_CHAR5_UUID:
            *pLen = SIMPLEPROFILE_CHAR5_LEN;
            VOID memcpy( pValue, pAttr->pValue, SIMPLEPROFILE_CHAR5_LEN );
            break;
            
          default:
            // Should never get here! (characteristics 3 and 4 do not have read permissions)
            *pLen = 0;
            status = ATT_ERR_ATTR_NOT_FOUND;
            break;
        }
      }
      else
      {
        // 128-bit UUID
        *pLen = 0;
        status = ATT_ERR_INVALID_HANDLE;
      }
    
      return ( status );
    }

    But, here is the callback for att read. Why the client write 0x0001 to handle 0x002B to enable notification will run into this callback?

  • Hello Isaac,
    Yes you can use the CC2540 USB Dongle. Load the following hex file to your device using the CC-Debugger or a SmartRF05EB board:
    C:\Texas Instruments\BLE-CC254x-1.4.0\Accessories\HexFiles\CC2540_USBdongle_HostTestRelease_All.hex

    Section 4 ("Using BTool") in the CC2541 Evaluation Module Kit User’s Guide describes how to use BTool in General:
    www.ti.com/.../swru301a.pdf

    You probably get that callback because the master reads out the current value of the attribute before changing it (doing a write).
  • I am interested in making all 5 characteristics notifiable. I have changed the properties in the profile attribute variables and table. Through Btool / BLE Device Monitor I am able to write the Cfg Attribute for each Characteristic, however only Char4 begins notifying when enabled. I attempted to duplicate the addservice() configuration table, setparameter GATTServApp_ProcessCharCFg, and ReadAttrCB for each of the characteristics. I will attach the .c and .h files from my profile for further detail.

    Should I consider other notification methods?

  • Hello Etan,
    Are the other characteristic values initiated or updated?
    Are you changing the value in your application?

    In SimpleBLEPeripheral characteristic4 is updated within the SimpleBLEPeripheral_performPeriodicTask. Have you added any code in your application that actually changes the other 4 characteristics (char1-3&char5)?
  • I realized that by calling setparameter in the periodictask call, the characteristics would notify with my setup. Yes the sensor controller would poll a sensor (temp/battery/alarm/cap) and set the specific characteristic for that sensor. currently struggling with actually using the SC now e2e.ti.com/.../416973
