Grove BLE dual model and devices

Hello,

I bought a Grove BLE (dual model) and I would like to detect a device bluetooth. I connected the Grove BLE dual model to an Arduino and tried the sketch which is proposed but I can’t use properly AT command it seems… Please could you help me ?

Hello,

If you use the example code and there is no problem with your hardware, it couldn’t strike.

Could you pls provide more detailed information?

Thank you for answering,



I tried the example code but it is to link 2 arduino. And I can’t use AT command after the program started. I would like to connect the Grove BLE to a device to receive informations, not sending. I can rename the device, I found its MAC adress Bluetooth, but I can’t use AT+CON+adress. It doesn’t seem to work. What do I have to change ? Here the example code.

I kept it configured as MASTER. The other device doesn’t have any password. Do I need to put a password to the Grove BLE ?

Where should I add AT+CON ? Or I need to write something other ?

I think that I can erase part sending “hi”, as the device doesn’t receive any signal.

By the way, when switch on, with this program, it connects to another Bluetooth but it’s impossible to know which one.
