Bluefruit-LE-Shield-Beacon
Beacon
Adafruit's Bluefruit LE modules currently support the following 'Beacon' technologies:
- Beacon (Apple) via AT+BLEBEACON
- UriBeacon (Google) via AT+BLEURIBEACON (deprecated)
- Eddystone (Google) via AT+EDDYSTONE*
Modules can be configured to act as 'Beacons' using the following commands:
AT+BLEBEACON
- Codebase Revision: 0.3.0
- Parameters: The following comma-separated parameters are required to enable beacon mode:
- Bluetooth Manufacturer ID (uint16_t)
- 128-bit UUID
- Major Value (uint16_t)
- Minor Value (uint16_t)
- RSSI @ 1m (int8_t)
- Output: None
# Enable Apple iBeacon emulation # Manufacturer ID = 0x004C AT+BLEBEACON=0x004C,01-12-23-34-45-56-67-78-89-9A-AB-BC-CD-DE-EF-F0,0x0000,0x0000,-59 OK # Reset to change the advertising data ATZ OK # Enable Nordic Beacon emulation # Manufacturer ID = 0x0059 AT+BLEBEACON=0x0059,01-12-23-34-45-56-67-78-89-9A-AB-BC-CD-DE-EF-F0,0x0000,0x0000,-59 OK # Reset to change the advertising data ATZ OK
AT+BLEBEACON will cause the beacon data to be stored in non-volatile config memory on the Bluefruit LE module, and these values will be persisted across system resets and power cycles. To remove or clear the beacon data you need to enter the 'AT+FACTORYRESET' command in command mode. |
Entering Nordic Beacon emulation using the sample code above, you can see the simulated beacon in Nordic's 'Beacon Config' tool below:
AT+BLEURIBEACON
Converts the specified URI into a UriBeacon advertising packet, and configures the module to advertise as a UriBeacon (part of Google's Physical Web project).
To view the UriBeacon URIs you can use one of the following mobile applications:
- Android 4.3+: Physical Web on the Google Play Store
- iOS: Physical Web in Apple's App Store
- Codebase Revision: 0.4.7
- Parameters: The URI to encode (ex. http://www.adafruit.com/blog)
- Output: None of a valid URI was entered (length is acceptable, etc.).
AT+BLEURIBEACON=http://www.adafruit.com/blog OK # Reset to change the advertising data ATZ OK
If the supplied URI is too long you will get the following output:
AT+BLEURIBEACON=http://www.adafruit.com/this/uri/is/too/long URL is too long ERROR
If the URI that you are trying to encode is too long, try using a shortening service like bit.ly, and encode the shortened URI. |
UriBeacon should be considered deprecated as a standard, and EddyStone should be used for any future development. No further development will happen in the Bluefruit LE firmware around UriBeacon. |
