CC2650 Launchpad SPP BLE to pc

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2650, CC2640, TIDC-SPPBLE-SW-RD

I am using the CC2650 Launchpad and the SPP BLE Server code example.  It runs successfully and can connect to my Android Bluetooth. I can successfully send data from a uart terminal to the android and return data.  But when I connect to a standard PC laptop Bluetooth (from 2016 with Windows 10) it connects successfully but does not show a com port connection. Incoming or outgoing.  Is there something in the stack of the CC2650 SPP BLE Server that has to change?

My understanding is limited but any response is greatly appreciated.

  • Hi Robert,

    You will need to implement the TI SPPBLE custom GATT service on your Windows machine in order to use the TI SPPBLE custom service. For more info on GATT and how to find more about BLE, please see the CC2640 Getting Started sticky thread at the top of the BLE forum.

  • Thank you for your reply and this makes sense. However, I have used other SPP BT modules with Uart in and BT out.  The Windows Bluetooth device shows up with com port connections incoming and outgoing. There is no Win app involved.  So is there something in their module stack that allows windows to provide a com port connection?

    Thanks for all your help,

    Bob

  • Hi Bob,

    Good observation. The other modules are classic BT (BR/EDR) which does have a defined/adopted SPP profile hence it is "in box" with the Windows BT stack. There is no such adopted profile for SPP in BLE; they are all custom profiles in BLE.

  • Thank you, this gives me a better understanding.
  • Hello Mr RCDew , Hello everyone
    I'm actually work at the SPP BLE Server code example of cc2650 launchpad.
    the code build and debug successfully (I'm using ccs v6.2)
    I'm using an android application Ble scanner to connect with my cc2650 lanchpad here the the lin of the application :
    play.google.com/.../details

    But I can't connect to my smartphone either I can't found the server(cc2650 launchpad) !!
    what I'm supposed to do to fix this problem ?
    it is the problem on the android application ?
  • Hello. Did you apply this application which you want? How Can I do this?
  • Hello Gocmen
    first can you tell me more details about your project and what's your problem exactly
  • @Intellectual I'm using nRF52832 Software Development Kit, PCA10040, S132. This kit is BLE. And When I connected nRF52832 on my PC through by Bluetooth (without USB), I couldn't see Bluetooth Serial Ports (Incoming or outgoing) (Virtual COM Ports). How Can I see these?

    Note: When I connected a Classic Bluetooth Device on my PC through by Bluetooth, I succesfully saw these Ports.
  • This TI E2E forum is dedicated for TI devices. I suggest you to ask nRF52832 related issue at devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../
  • Hi Folks,


    can Anybody tell me if and  where i can find something like the "TI SPPBLE custom GATT service".
    There has to be a simple way to use the TI SPP BLE like the a classic BT SPP Connection.

  • Hi Johannes,

    I'm not sure what 'like the "TI SPPBLE custom GATT service"' means here. The TI SPP BLE implementation can be found on the TIDC-SPPBLE-SW-RD page, including the GATT specification and a link to the latest SW implementation.

  • Hi JXS,

    Thank you for your answer.

    I just read your reply from the Sep 22, 2016 and was hoping for some PC API/Driver etc. to use the SPP BLE Server code example with a normal PC BT connection as a counterpart.

    Your sentence "You will need to implement the TI SPPBLE custom GATT service on your Windows machine in order to use the TI SPPBLE custom service" sounds promising to me.

    Hopefully I don't get this to wrong and there is some way to do this.

    Best regards
