BOOSTXL-CC2650MA: Can i program the MSP432P401R to use bluetooth using Energia??

Part Number: BOOSTXL-CC2650MA
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ENERGIA, CC2650, CC2650MODA

Hello guys i have the BOOSTXL-CC2650MA and the MSP432P401R Launchpad can i program with energia.nu

is more easy to understand the code and work with energia.nu for new developers.

i want to know if there is a way to use the BOOSTXL-CC2650MA and the MSP432P401R together with energia (something like a library that works with energia)

i read about BLE.h, but i think is not supported with energia anymore.

Thanks in advace.

    Jose,

      The CC2650 BoosterPack works with the BLE libraries provided on Energia. The MSP432P401R board is supported with that BoosterPack. In fact it's actually shown together with the CC2650 in the picture on the Energia BLE Libraries page!

    Regards,

     Bob L.

    Thanks for your reply Bob. But....

    "Energia 1.6.10E18 no longer supports the CC2650 SensorTag.
    CC2650 has been removed from Energia due to the lack of BLE support that could not be enabled because of licensing issues with the BLE stack."

    So i cant devolp using Energia.

    I need to use a BLE device (CC2650 BoosterPack) and the MSP432P401R, i build and debug the project zero example of the blutooth plugin SDK on CCS, but is very difficult to understand the code, i just need to send data (int, string, array) from app (Smartphone) to the board (MSP432 Launchpad).

    Can you provide me any simple example of using the CC2650 BoosterPack and the MSP432P401R.

    Thanks again

    Jose,
    I looked back at the E2E post referring to BLE licensing that you must have read. I'll need to hand off further discussion on this to someone in the CC2650 group, as I'm in the MSP432 app group and can't comment on their licensing.

    Regards,
    Bob L.

    Jose,

    To clarify, the CC2650MODA BoosterPack is supported in Energia. SensorTag is not.

    You can find more information here as well as getting started material: energia.nu/.../

    To further add to Evan's reply, the CC2650MODA runs the BLE Stack in a network processor configuration while the Energia application & libraries run on an external MCU (e.g., MSP432).

    If you need a simple application to interact with a phone, I suggest using Project Zero which is built upon the BLE Stack and further explained in our SimpleLink Academy training modules. More details are in the pinned BLE & Getting Started FAQ here in the BLE forum.

    Best wishes

    SImplink Academy works well.

    >>To clarify, the CC2650MODA BoosterPack is supported in Energia.
    And just to verify, built both BLE examples ((SerialOverBLE and BLEInputOutput) in Energia 1.6.10E18 if you want to stay that route.

    >>but is very difficult to understand the code, 

    BTW, with Energia18 and CCS7, you can import an .ino sketch file (in this case MSP432,) into CCSv7 (makes a local copy) and step by step debug. 

    Once any .sketch modifications are done, you can move the .ino file back into Energia standalone.

    Please see Blink example screenshot (CCS Simple or not) below.
