Overview
|
|
********
|
|
|
|
This simple application demonstrates the BLE Broadcaster role
|
|
functionality by advertising an Apple iBeacon. The calibrated RSSI @ 1
|
|
meter distance can be set using an IBEACON_RSSI build variable
|
|
(e.g. IBEACON_RSSI=0xb8 for -72 dBm RSSI @ 1 meter), or by manually
|
|
editing the default value in the ``main.c`` file.
|
|
|
|
Because of the hard-coded values of iBeacon UUID, major, and minor,
|
|
the application is not suitable for production use, but is quite
|
|
convenient for quick demonstrations of iBeacon functionality.

Building and Running
|
|
********************
|
|
|
|
This sample can be found under :zephyr_file:`samples/bluetooth/ibeacon` in the
|
|
Zephyr tree.
|
|
|
|
See :ref:`bluetooth samples section <bluetooth-samples>` for details on how
|
|
to run the sample inside QEMU.
|
|
|
|
For other boards, build and flash the application as follows:
|
|
|
|
.. zephyr-app-commands::
|
|
:zephyr-app: samples/bluetooth/ibeacon
|
|
:board: <board>
|
|
:goals: flash

|
:compact:
|
|
|
|
Refer to your :ref:`board's documentation <boards>` for alternative
|
|
flash instructions if your board doesn't support the ``flash`` target.
