2 Introduction to Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart Software
The Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart Software enables developers to quickly and easily develop Bluetooth Smart
applications without in-depth knowledge of the Bluetooth Smart technology. The Bluetooth Smart Software
consists of two main parts:
The Bluetooth Smart Stack
The Bluetooth Smart Software Development Kit (SDK)
2.1 The Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart Stack
The Bluetooth Smart stack is a fully Bluetooth 4.0 single mode compatible software stack implementing slave
and master modes, all the protocol layers such as L2CAP, Attribute Protocol (ATT), Generic Attribute Profile
(GATT), Generic Access Profile (GAP) and security manager (SM). The Bluetooth Smart stack also implements
various other features such as interface APIs to SPI, UART, GPIO, ADC, flash etc. and other features like the
Device Firmware Update (DFU) API.
The Bluetooth Smart is meant for the Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart products such as BLE112, BLE113 BLE121LR
and BLED112.
Figure: The Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart Stack

Page 7 of 227
2.2 The Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart SDK
The Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart SDK is a software development kit, which enables the device and software
vendors to develop products on top of the Bluegiga’s Bluetooth Smart hardware and software.
The Bluetooth Smart SDK supports multiple development models and the software developers can decide
whether the device’s application software runs on a separate host (for example a MCU) or whether they want to
make fully standalone devices and execute their application on-board the Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart modules.
The SDK also contains documentation, tools for compiling the firmware, installing it into the hardware and lot of
example application speeding up the development process.
The Bluetooth Smart SDK contains the following components:
The BGAPITM protocol is a binary based commend and response protocol that allows the Bluetooth
Smart stack to be controller form an external host and an application over for example UART or USB
interface.
The BGScriptTM scripting language is a simple BASIC like scripting language that allows the software
developers to embed applications on-board the Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart modules. The BGScript
applications are executed in the BGScript Virtual Machine (VM) and the benefit of this is that no external
host MCU is required.
The BGLIBTM host library is a lightweight parser for the BGAPI host protocol and it implements C
functions and callback handlers for all the BGAPI commands, responses and events. The benefit of the
BGLIB library is that speeds up the application development for the external host processors.
The Profile ToolkitTM is a simple XML based description language that enables quick and easy
development of GATT Bluetooth Smart services and characteristics on a device.
Each of these components are described in more detail in the following chapters.
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 8 of 227
2.3 The BGAPI TM Protocol
For applications where a separate host is used to implement the end user application, a transport protocol is
needed between the host and the Bluetooth Smart stack. The transport protocol is used to communicate with
the Bluetooth stack as well to transmit and receive data packets. This protocol is called BGAPI and it's a
lightweight binary based communication protocol designed specifically for ease of implementation within host
devices with limited resources.
The BGAPI protocol is a simple command, response and event based protocol and it can be used over UART
or USB physical interfaces.
Figure: BGAPI message exchange
The BGAPI provides access for example to the following layers in the Bluetooth Smart Stack:
Generic Access Profile - GAP allows the management of discoverability and connetability modes and
open connections
Security manager - Provides access the Bluetooth low energy security functions
Attribute database - An class to access the local attribute database
Attribute client - Provides an interface to discover, read and write remote attributes
Connection - Provides an interface to manage Bluetooth low energy connections
Hardware - An interface to access the various hardware layers such as timers, ADC and other hardware
interfaces
Persistent Store - User to access the parameters of the radio hardware and read/write data to nonvolatile memory
System - Various system functions, such as querying the hardware status or reset it
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company

2.4 The BGLIB TM Host Library
For easy implementation of BGAPI protocol an ANSI C host library is available. The library is easily portable
ANSI C code delivered within the Bluetooth Smart SDK. The purpose is to simplify the application development
to various host environments.
Figure: The BGLIB host library
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 10 of 227
2.5 The BGScript TM Scripting Language
The Bluetooth Smart SDK Also allows the application developers to create fully standalone devices without a
separate host MCU and run all the application code on the Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart modules. The Bluetooth
Smart modules can run simple applications along the Bluetooth Smart stack and this provides a benefit when
one needs to minimize the end product’s size, cost and current consumption. For developing standalone
Bluetooth Smart applications the SDK includes a BGScript VM, compiler and other BGScript development tools.
BGScript provides access to the same software and hardware interfaces as the BGAPI protocol and the
BGScript code can be developed and compiled with free-of-charge tools provided by Bluegiga.
Typical BGScript applications are only few tens to hundreds lines of code, so they are really quick and easy to
develop and lots of readymade examples are provides with the SDK.
Figure: BGScript application model

2.6 The Profile Toolkit TM
The Bluetooth Smart profile toolkit is a simple set of tools, which can used to describe GATT based Bluetooth
Smart services and characteristics. The profile toolkit consists of a simple XML based description language and
templates, which can be used to describe the devices GATT database. The profile toolkit also contains a
compiler, which converts the XML to binary format and generates API to access the characteristic values.

3.2 Packet format
3.2.1 Generic packet format
Bluetooth Smart technology uses one generic packet format used for both advertisement and data packets.
Figure: Generic packet format
Preamble: either 010101010 or 101010101
Access address: advertisement packets use a fixed access address of 0x8E89BED6. Data packets use
a random access address depending on the connection.
PDU: protocol data unit depends on the packet type.
CRC: a 24-bit CRC checksum is used to protect the PDU.
3.2.2 Advertisement packet format
The advertisement packets use the following structure and can contain 0 to 31 bytes of advertisement data.
Figure: Advertisement packet structure
3.2.3 Data packet format
The data packets on the other hand use the following structure. An unencrypted data packet can have 0 to 27
bytes of payload.
Figure: Unencrypted data packet
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company

3.3 Link layer state machine
The Bluetooth low energy link layer state machine and state transitions are illustrated in the figure below.
Figure: Link layer state machine and state transitions

Page 16 of 227
3.4 Link layer operations
This section describes the Bluetooth low energy link layer operations.
3.4.1 Passive scanning
In passive scanning mode the advertiser simply broadcasts advertisement packets on the advertising channels
and a scanner simply listens to incoming advertisements.
Typically in passive scanning scenario:
Advertiser sends three advertisement packet one on each advertisement channel separated by 150us.
Scanner only listens to one advertisement channel at a time, but keeps switching between the three
advertisement channels.
The advertisement events are separated by a time called advertisement interval, which can vary from 20ms to
10240ms. In addition a random delay is added to the advertisement interval to avoid interference with other
devices.
Figure: Passive scanning
The advertisement packets typically contains information like:
Discoverability and connectability modes
The address of advertiser
TX power level
Supported services
Application data
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 17 of 227
3.4.2 Active scanning
In active scanning mode the scanner will request more information from the Advertiser after it has received an
advertisement packet. The scanner will send a scan request packet to the advertiser and, which the advertiser
can respond by sending back scan response packet and scan response data.
Figure: Active scanning
The scan response packets typically contains information like:
Device friendly name
Supported services (profiles)
Application data
3.4.3 Connection establishment
The figure below illustrates how the connection establishment happens at the link layer level.
Figure: Bluetooth low energy connection establisment
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 18 of 227
3.5 Topologies
Bluetooth 4.0 specification defines four device roles: advertiser, scanner, master and slave. The 4.0 version of
the specification supports point-to-point and start topologies. The figure below illustrates the device roles, and
topologies.
Advetiser : Broadcasts advertisement packets, but is not able to receive them
Scanner : Listens for advertisement packets sent out by advertisers. Can try to connect an advertiser.
Master : A device that is connected to one or several slaves
Slave : A deivce that is connected to a master. Can only be connected to one master at a time
Figure: Bluetooth low energy topologies
Devices can change roles and topologies as illustrated below.
Figure: Topology and role change

3.6 Connections and packet timings
Connections allow application data to be transmitted reliably and robustly. The data sent in a connection can be
acknowledged, integrity is protected by CRC and to protect privacy the data can also be encrypted. On addition
the Adaptive Frequency Hopping (AFH) guarantees reliable data transmission even in noisy environments.
In Bluetooth Smart technology the connection procedures are very simple and connections are always starts
when master sends a connection request packet to the slave. The connection request packet can only be sent
right after a successful reception of an advertisement packet. The connection request packet contains the
following information:
Parameter
Description
Conn_Interval_Min
Minimum value for the connection event interval
Range: 7.5 ms to 4000ms
Conn_Interval_Max
Maximum value for the connection event interval
Range: 7.5 ms to 4000ms
Shall be greater then Conn_Interval_Min
Conn_Latency
Slave latency for the connection in number of connection events.
Slave latency allows the slave devices to skip a number of connection events in case
it does not have any data to send.
Range: 0 to 500
Supervision_Timeout
Supervision timeout
Range: 100ms to 32 seconds
Shall be greater than Connection Interval
The connection parameters can be updated during the connection.
The connection timeline and events are illustrated below.
Figure: Bluetooth LE connection
The connection event starts, when master sends a packet to the slave at the defined connection interval. The
slave can respond 150us after it has received a packet from the master. However if the slave has no data to
send it can skip a certain number of connection events defined by the slave latency parameter. If no packets
are received by the master or slave within the time defined by the supervision timeout, the connection is
terminated.
If the slave has more data to send than what can be fitted into a single packet, the connection event will
automatically extend and the slave can send as many packets as there is time until the beginning of next
connection interval. This however can only be used with attribute protocol operations, that do not require an
acknowledgement.

3.7 Encryption
Bluetooth low energy uses AES-128 link layer encryption block with Counter Mode CBC MAC (defined in RFC
3610).
The data packets are encrypted as show below.
Figure: Encrypted data packet
The full AES encryption procedure is illustrated below.

3.8 L2CAP
L2CAP stands for Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol and it is acts as a protocol multiplexer and
handles segmentation and reassembly of packets. It also provides logical channels, which are multiplexed over
a or more logical links.
All application data is sent over L2CAP packets and the L2CAP structure is illustrated below.
Figure: L2CAP packet format
The following CIDs are defined:

Page 23 of 227
3.9 Security Manager
The security manager protocol is responsible of:
Pairing
Key distribution
Generating hashes and short term keys
The security manager uses asymmetric model and more responsibility is given to the master device, so the
memory and processing requirements on the slaves can be kept to minimum.
The basic security manager concepts include:
Distributing key model
Slave generates and distributes key information to master
Master can use this key information when reconnecting
Pairing
Authentication of devices based on their capabilities and security requirements
Signing Data
Signing allows authentication of sender without encryption
Bonding
GAP concept – device save keys for bonded devices
Three pairing methods are supported:
Just works pairing, similar to Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR
Man-in-the-Middle pairing using a passkey entry or comparison, similar to Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR
Out-of-band pairing, where security keys are exchanged over an other medium like NFC
3.9.1 I/O capabilities and Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) protection
Same I/O capabilities and MITM features are supported as in Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR.
Figure: I/O capabilities

Page 24 of 227
3.10 Attribute Protocol (ATT)
Bluetooth low energy profiles expose a state of a device. The state is exposed as one or several values called
attributes and the protocol to access these attributes is called the Attribute protocol (ATT).
The attribute protocol uses a client server architecture and has two roles:
Server
Service is the device that exposes the information as one or several attributes
Client
Client device that collects the information for one or more servers
Figure: Device roles
Attribute types:
Attributes are values:
Arrays of octets
From 0 to 512 octets
Can be fixed or variable length
Example:
Value
0x0000
0x426c75656769676120546563686e6f6c6f67696573
Attribute have handles, which are used to address an individual attribute. The client accesses the server's
attributes using this handle.
Example:
Handle
Value
0x0001
0x0000
0x0002
0x426c75656769676120546563686e6f6c6f6769657
Attributes also have a type, described by a UUID. UUID determines what the attribute value means.
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 25 of 227
Two types of UUIDs are used:
Globally unique 16-bit UUID defined in the characteristics specifications (http://developer.bluetooth.org/)
Manufacturer specific 128-bit UUIDs, which can for example be generated online. (http://www.
uuidgenerator.com/)
Example:
Handle
UUID
Value
Description
0x0001
0x1804
0x0000
TX power as dBm
0x0002
0x2a00
0x426c75656769676120546563686e6f6c6f6769657
Device name, UTF-8
Attribute permissions:
Attributes also have permissions, which can be:
Readable / Not readable
Writable / Not writable
Readable and writable / Not readable and not writable
The attributes may also require:
Authentication to read or write
Authorization to read or write
Encryption and pairing to read or write
The attribute types and handles are public information, but the permissions are not. Therefore and read or write
request may result an error Read/Write Not Permitted or Insufficient authentication.
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 26 of 227
Attribute protocol methods:
The attribute protocol is a stateless sequential protocol, meaning that no state is stored in the protocol and only
one operation can be performed at a time.
The available Attribute Protocol methods are described in the table below:

3.11 Generic Attribute Profile (GATT)
The Generic ATTribute profile (GATT) has similar client server structure as Attribute Protocol. However the
GATT encapsulates data (attributes) into services and the data is exposed as characteristics.
Figure: GATT architecture
GATT defines concepts of:
Service Group
Characteristic Group
Declarations
Descriptors
It's important also to understand that GATT does not does not define rules for their use.
Characteristics
Characteristic is a value, with a known type, and a known format. They characteristics are defined in
"Characteristic Specification" available at http://developer.bluetooth.org.
Characteristics consist of:
Characteristic Declaration
Describes the properties of characteristic value (read, write, indicate etc.), characteristic value handle
and characteristic value type (UUID)
Characteristic Value
Contains the value of the characteristic.
Characteristic Descriptor(s)
Provide additional information about the characteristic (characteristic user description, characteristic
client configuration, vendor specific information etc.)
Figure: Characteristic format
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 28 of 227
Service
A service is:
defined in a service specification (http://developer.bluetooth.org)
collection of characteristics
references to other services
There are two types of service:
Primary services
A primary service exposes primary functionality of a device. It can be included by an other service.
Secondary services
Secondary service is a subservient of another primary or a secondary service. It's only relevant in the
context of an other service.
Attributes alone are just flat:

3.12 Generic Access Profile (GAP)
GAP defines device roles:
Broadcaster : Sends advertising events, including characteristics, including service data (does not need
RX)
Observer : Receives advertising events, listens for characteristics, listens for service data (does not
need TX)
Peripheral : Has RX and TX, is always slave, is connectable and advertising
Central : Has RX and TX, is always master, never advertises
GAP also defines modes and procedures for
Discovery
Connections
Bonding
Privacy
Non-Resolvable and Resolvable Private Addresses

4 API definition
This section of the document contains the generic Bluetooth Smart Stack API definition. The definition consist of
three parts:
The BGAPITM host protocol API definition
The BGLIBTM host library API description
The BGScriptTM scripting language API description
This section of the document only provides the generic definition and description of the API. The actual
commands, responses and events are described in detail in the API reference section.
4.1 The BGAPI protocol definition
The BGAPI protocol is a command, response and event protocol that can be used to communicate with the
Bluetooth Smart stack over one of the physical interfaces like UART or USB. The BGAPI protocol can be used
to instruct the Bluetooth Smart stack to do something like advertise, discover and connect other Bluetooth
devices or access the physical interfaces like SPI or I2C of the Bluetooth Smart module.
The BGAPI commands, responses and events use a binary format and the generic protocol format is described
in this section.
BGAPI Packet format
The generic BGAPI protocol format is described in the table below. The BGAPI protocol uses a four (4) byte
header and data payload.
Packets in either direction use the following format.

With the Bluegiga Bluetooth Smart products the maximum allowed BGAPI packet size is 64 bytes and
longer packet sizes cannot be used. Four (4) bytes will be used for the BGAPI protocol header so the
maximum payload size is 60 bytes.
4.1.1 Message types

4.1.3 Packet Exchange
The BGAPI protocol is a simple command / response protocol and the BGAPI messages are exchanged as
show in the picture below.
The command messages are transmitted from the Application to the Stack and the Stack provides a response
to every successfully received command.
Some commands may generate events, which are transmitted from the Stack to the Application.
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 34 of 227
The Application should always wait for the response to a command before issuing another command.
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 35 of 227
Using BGAPI protocol without UART flow control
By default the BGAPI protocol assumes that UART flow control (RTS/CTS) is used to ensure reliable data
transmission and to prevent lost data because of buffer overflows. It is however possible to use the BGAPI
protocol without UART flow control.
When using the BGAPI protocol without UART flow control over a simple 2-wire (TX and RX) UART interface
and additional length byte needs to be added to the BGAPI packets, which tells the total length of the BGAPI
packet excluding the length byte itself. This is used by the BGAPI protocol parser to identify the length of
incoming commands and data and make sure they are fully received.
In this case the BGAPI protocol uses the following format:

This operational mode needs to be especially enabled in devices hardware configuration file (typically
hardware.xml) and is not used by default. The default operational mode assumes a UART with flow
control is used.
Below is a simple example which shows how a System Get Info command (Raw: 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x08) is sent
using the BGAPI packet format.

4.2 The BGLIB functions definition
Bluegiga provides a reference parser for the BGAPI protocol called the BGLIB. The BGLIB is an ANSI C
implementation of BGAPI packet parser and it's provided in source code format with the Bluegiga Bluetooth
Smart SDK. The purpose of the BGLIB is to simplify and speed up the development process and also to provide
higher level, easier to use C functions and callbacks so the developers do not need to fully learn the raw BGAPI
protocol.
In BGLIB all of the BGAPI commands are available as C functions and for the BGAPI responses and events
there are callback handlers.
The BGLIB functions and callbacks are documented as show below:
C Functions
/* Function */
void ble_cmd_gap_connect_direct(
bd_addr address ,
uint8 addr_type ,
uint16 conn_interval_min ,
uint16 conn_interval_max ,
uint16 timeout
);
/* Callback */
void ble_rsp_gap_connect_direct(
uint16 result ,
uint8 conn
);
The command parameters and return values are the same as used in the BGAPI protocol and they are not
documented separately in the API reference section.
Callback programming
Callback programming is a style of computer programming, which allows lower layer of software to call functions
defined on a higher layer. Callback is piece of code or a reference to a piece of code that is passed as an
argument. The figure below illustrates the callback architecture used with BGLIB.
Figure: Callback arhitecture
If you are not familiar with callback programming a basic tutorial can for example be found from here:
http://www.codeguru.com/cpp/cpp/cpp_mfc/callbacks/article.php/c10557
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 38 of 227
4.3 The BGScript API definition
The BGScript functions are also documented in the API reference section. The format of the commands varies
slightly from the BGLIB functions and instead of using callbacks the BGScript functions take the return values
as parameters.
BGScript commands are documented as follows:
BGScript Functions
CALL gap_connect_direct(address ,addr_type ,conn_interval_min ,conn_interval_max ,timeout )(result
,conn )
The BGScript command parameters and return values are the same as used in the BGAPI binary protocol and
they are not documented separately.

5.1 Attribute Client
The Attribute Client class implements the Bluetooth Smart Attribute Protocol (ATT) and provides access to the
ATT protocol methods. The Attribute Client class can be used to discover services and characteristics from the
ATT server, read and write values and manage indications and notifications.
5.1.1 Commands
Attribute Client commands
Attribute Write
This command can be used to write an attributes value on a remote device. In order to write the value of an
attribute a Bluetooth connection must exists and you need to know the handle of the attribute you want to write.
A successful attribute write will be acknowledged by the remote device and this will generate an event
attclient_procedure_completed. The acknowledgement should happen within a 30 second window or otherwise
the Bluetooth connection will be dropped.
The data payload for the Attribute Write command can be up to 20 bytes.

Indicate Confirm
This command can be used to send a acknowledge a received indication from a remote device. This function
allows the application to manually confirm the indicated values instead of the Bluetooth smart stack
automatically doing it. The benefit of this is extra reliability since the application can for example store the
received value on the flash memory before confirming the indication to the remote device.
In order to use this feature the manual indication acknowledgements must be enabled to the
application configuration file (config.xml).

Prepare Write
This command will send a prepare write request to a remote device for queued writes. Queued writes can for
example be used to write large attribute values by transmitting the data in chunks using prepare write
command.
Once the data has been transmitted with multiple prepare write commands the write must then be executed or
canceled with Execute Write command, which if acknowledged by the remote device triggers a Procedure
Completed event.
The example below shows how this approach can be used to write a 30-byte characteristic value:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
attclient_prepare_write(...., partial data)

attclient_prepare_write(...., partial data)
wait for rsp_attclient_prepare_write
wait for evt_attclient_procedure_completed
attclient_execute_write(1)
wait for rsp_attclient_execute_write
wait for evt_attclient_procedure_completed
It is not mandatory for an ATT server to support this command. It is only recommended to use this
command to write long-attributes which do not fit in single ATT packet.

Read By Group Type
This command reads the value of each attribute of a given type and in a given handle range.
The command is typically used for primary (UUID: 0x2800) and secondary (UUID: 0x2801) service discovery.
Discovered services are reported by Group Found event.
Finally when the procedure is completed a Procedure Completed event is generated.

Read Long
This command can be used to read long attribute values, which are longer than 22 bytes and cannot be read
with a simple Read by Handle command.
The command starts a procedure, where the client first sends a normal read command to the server and if the
returned attribute value length is equal to MTU, the client will send further read long read requests until rest of
the attribute is read.

5.2 Attribute Database
The Attribute Database class provides methods to read and write attributes to the local devices attribute
database. This class is usually only needed on sensor devices (Attribute server) for example to update attribute
values to the local database based on the sensor readings. A remote device then can access the GATT
database and these values over a Bluetooth connection.
5.2.1 Commands
Attribute database commands
Read
The command reads the given attribute's value from the local database. There is a 32-byte limit in the amount
of data that can be read at a time. In order to read larger values multiple read commands must be used with the
offset properly used.
For example to read a 64 bytes attribute:
1. Read first 32 bytes using offset 0
2. Read second 32 bytes using offset 32

User Read Response
This command is used to respond to an attribute Read request by a remote device, but only for attributes which
have been configured with the user property. Attributes which have the user property enabled allow the attribute
value to be requested from the application instead of the Bluetooth Smart stack automatically responding with
the data in it's local GATT database.
This command is normally used in response to a User Read Request event, which is generated when a remote
device tries to read an attribute with a user property enabled.
The response to User Read Request events must happen within 30 seconds or otherwise a timeout will occur.

User Write Response
This command is used by the GATT server to acknowledge to the remote device that the attribute's value was
written. This feature again allows the user application to acknowledged the attribute write operations instead of
the Bluetooth Smart stack doing it automatically.
The command should be used when a Value event is received where the reason why value has changed
corresponds to attributes_attribute_change_reason_write_request_user.
This response must be sent within 30 seconds or otherwise a timeout will occur.

Get Rssi
This command returns the Receiver Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) related to the connection referred to by
the connection handle parameter. If the connection is not open, then the RSSI value returned in the response
packet will be 0x00, while if the connection is active, then it will be some negative value (2's complement form
between 0x80 and 0xFF and never 0x00). Note that this command also returns an RSSI of 0x7F if you request
RSSI on an invalid/unsupported handle.
At -38 dBm the BLE112 receiver is saturated. The measurement value may depend on the used
hardware and design.

Update
This command updates the connection parameters of a given connection. The parameters have the same
meaning and follow the same rules as for the GAP class command: Connect Direct.
If this command is issued at a master device, it will send parameter update request to the Bluetooth link layer.
On the other hand if this command is issued at a slave device, it will send L2CAP connection parameter update
request to the master, which may either accept or reject it.

5.4 Generic Access Profile
The Generic Access Profile (GAP) class provides methods to control the Bluetooth GAP level functionality of
the local device. The GAP call for example allows remote device discovery, connection establishment and local
devices connection and discovery modes. The GAP class also allows the control of local devices privacy
modes.
5.4.1 Commands
Generic Access Profile class commands
Connect Direct
This command will start the GAP direct connection establishment procedure to a dedicated Bluetooth Smart
device.
The Bluetooth module will enter a state where it continuously scans for the connectable advertisement packets
from the remote device which matches the Bluetooth address gives as a parameter. Upon receiving the
advertisement packet, the module will send a connection request packet to the target device to imitate a
Bluetooth connection. A successful connection will bi indicated by a Status event.
If the device is configured to support more than one connection, the smallest connection interval which is
divisible by maximum_connections * 2.5ms will be selected. Thus, it is important to provide minimum and
maximum connection intervals so that such a connection interval is available within the range.
The connection establishment procedure can be cancelled with End Procedure command.

Minimum time for the Supervision Timeout is 100ms and maximum
value is 32000ms.
According to the specification, the Supervision Timeout in
milliseconds shall be larger than (1 + latency) * conn_interval_max
* 2, where conn_interval_max is given in milliseconds.
17 18
uint16
This parameter configures the slave latency. Slave latency defines
how many connection intervals a slave device can skip.
Increasing slave latency will decrease the energy consumption of
the slave in scenarios where slave does not have data to send at
every connection interval.
latency
Range: 0 - 500
0 : Slave latency is disabled.
Example:
Connection interval is 10ms and slave latency is 9: this means that
the slave is allowed to communicate every 100ms, but it can
communicate every 10ms if needed.

Connect Selective
This command will start the GAP direct connection establishment procedure to a set of dedicated Bluetooth
Smart devices.
When this command is issued the the Bluetooth module will enter a state where it scans connectable
advertisement packets from the remote devices which are registered in the local white list. Upon receiving an
advertisement packet from one of the registered devices, the module will send a connection request to this
device, and a successful connection will produce a connection status event.
The connect selective command can be cancelled with End Procedure command.
When in Initiating State there are no scan response events.

This commands set advertisement or scan response data used in the advertisement and scan response
packets. The command allows application specific data to be broadcasts either in advertisement or scan
response packets.
The data set with this command is only used when the GAP discoverable mode is set to gap_user_data.
Notice that advertisement or scan response data must be formatted in accordance to the Bluetooth Core
Specification. See BLUETOOTH SPECIFICATION Version 4.0 [Vol 3 - Part C - Chapter 11].

Set Adv Parameters
This command is used to set the advertising parameters.
Example: If the minimum advertisement interval is 40ms and the maximum advertisement interval is 100ms
then the real advertisement interval will be mostly the middle value (70ms) plus a randomly added 20ms delay,
which needs to be added according to the Bluetooth specification.
If you are currently advertising, then any changes set using this command will not take effect until you
stop and re-start advertising.

Scan windows must be equal or smaller than scan interval
If scan window is equal to the scan interval value, then the Bluetooth module
will be scanning at a 100% duty cycle.
If scan window is half of the scan interval value, then the Bluetooth module
will be scanning at a 50% duty cycle.

Set Privacy Flags
This command sets GAP central/peripheral privacy flags.
By setting for example peripheral_privacy to 1, the Bluetooth stack will automatically generate a resolvable
random private address for the advertising packets every time the Set Mode command is used to enter
advertising mode.
By setting privacy mode to 2, the Bluetooth stack will generate a resolvable random private address on
demand. If peripherial_privacy is set to 2 additionally Set Mode is called with the current Discoverable and
Connectable parameters. Setting up new mode by Set Mode command does not change generated address.
It is not recommended to adjust peripheral privacy unless mandatory by the application, because not
all Bluetooth implementations can decode resolvable private addresses.

Analog Comparator Config IRQ
This command configures analog comparator interrupts. Before enabling this interrupt, analog comparator has
to be first enabled with Analog Comparator Enable command.
Analog comparator interrupts are generated by default on rising edge, i.e. when condition V + > V- becomes
true. It is also possible to configure the opposite functionality, i.e. interrupts are generated on falling edge when
V+ < V- becomes true. The interrupt direction may be configured with Io Port Irq Direction command, by setting I
/O-port 0 direction. Please note that this configuration affects both analog comparator interrupt direction and all I
/O-port 0 pin interrupt directions.
Analog comparator interrupts are automatically disabled once triggered , so that a high frequency signal doesn't
cause unintended consequences. Continuous operation may be achieved by re-enabling the interrupt as soon
as the Analog Comparator Status event has been received.

I2C Read
The command reads data from I2C bus.
BLE112 module: uses bit-bang method and only master-mode is supported in current firmwares, I2C CLK is
fixed to P1_7 and I2C DATA to P1_6 (pull-up must be enabled on both pins), the clock rate is approximately 2025 kHz and it does vary slightly because other functionality has higher interrupt priority, such as the BLE radio.
BLE113/BLE121LR modules: only master-mode is supported in current firmwares, I2C pins are 14/24 (I2C CLK)
and 15/25 (I2C DATA) as seen in the datasheet, operates at 267kHz.
To convert a 7-bit I2C address to an 8-bit one, shift left by one bit. For example, a 7-bit address of
0x40 (dec 64) would be used as 0x80 (dec 128).

Set Soft Timer
This command configures the local software timer. The timer is 22 bits so the maximum value with BLE112 is
2^22 = 4194304/32768Hz = 128 seconds. With BLED112 USB dongle the maximum value is 2^22 = 4194304
/32000Hz = 131 seconds.

0 : Repeating timeout: the timer event is triggered at intervals defined with time
. The stack only supports one repeating timer at a time for reliability purposes.
Starting a repeating soft timer removes the current one if any.
1 : Single timeout: the timer event is triggered only once after a period defined
with time. There can be up to 8 non-repeating software timers running at the
same time (max number actually depends on the current activities of the stack,
so it might be lower than 8 at times.)

SPI Transfer
This command is used to transfer SPI data when in master mode. Maximum of 64 bytes can be transferred at a
time.
Slave select pin is not controlled automatically when transferring data while in SPI master mode, so it
must be controlled by the application using normal GPIO control commands like IO Port Write
command.

value
A/D value.
In the example case of 12 effective bits decimation, you will need to read the leftmost 12 bits of the value to interpret it. It is a 12-bit 2's complement value leftaligned to the MSB of the 16-bit container, which means that negative values (which
are uncommon but not impossible) are 0x8000 or higher, and positive values are
0x7FF0 or lower. Since it is only 12 bits, the last nibble will always be 0 (0xnnn0).
You can divide the value by 16 (that is, bit-shift 4 bits to the right) to obtain the
expected 12-bit value.

Analog Comparator Status
This event is produced when analog comparator output changes in the configured direction.
The timestamp is only valid if the module doesn't go to PM3 because in that mode the low frequency
oscillator is turned off. Example of such situation is the module in master mode, but not connected to
any slave. If module wakes up from an analog comparator interrupt, then the timestamp in the event
will not be accurate.
Setting up the timer by the Set Soft Timer command prevents the module from going to PM3 and
makes timestamps be valid all the time.

Bits on the flash can only be turned from 1 to 0. To turn the bits from 0 to 1 the Erase Page command
must be used. Notice that the erase page will erase the full 2kB flash page.
The amount of flash reserved for the user data needs to be defined in the application configuration file
(config.xml).
The amount of available user flash depends on the hardware version and whether it has 128kbB or
256kB flash and also how much flash is left after the Bluetooth Smart stack, BGScript application and
the GATT database. The BGBuild xompiler will show the flash consumption in it's output.

Encrypt Start
This command starts the encryption for a given connection.
Since iOS 9.1 update pairing without bonding is not any more supported by iOS. Calling this API
command without being in bondable mode, will cause the connection to fail with devices running iOS
9.1 or newer.
Before using this API command with iOS9.1 or newer you must enable bonding mode with command
Set Bondable Mode and you must also set then bonding parameter in this API command to 1 (Create
bonding).

0: RSSI of next packet sent on channel after Get Channel Map is issued
When this mode is selected, the command Get Channel Map must be issued while
a connection exists. Response will be ready when packets have been sent on all
the 37 channels. Returned value minus an offset of 103 will give the approximate
RSSI in dBm.
1: Accumulate error counter
When this mode is selected, the command Get Channel Map must be issued while
a connection exists. After the command is issued the counter will be reset.
2: Fast channel Sweep
When this mode is selected, the command Get Channel Map must be issued while
no connection exists. Returned value is of the same kind as in mode 0, but refers to
the measured background noise.

5.10 Device Firmware Upgrade
The commands and events in the DFU (Device firmware upgrade) can be used to perform a firmware upgrade
to the local device for example over the UART interface.
T commands in this class are only available when the module has been booted into DFU mode with the reset
command.

5.10.1 Commands
Device Firmware Upgrade commands
Flash Set Address
After the device has been boot into DFU mode, and if the UART bootloader is used (defined in project
configuration file), this command can be used to start the DFU firmware upgrade.
The UART DFU process:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Boot device to DFU mode with : Reset command.
Wait for DFU Boot event
Send command Flash Set Address to start the firmware update.
Upload the firmware with Flash Upload commands until all the data has been uploaded. Use data
contained in the firmware image .hex file starting from byte offset 0x1000: everything before this offset is
bootloader data which cannot be written using DFU; also, the last 2kB are skipped because they contain
the hardware page and other configuration data that cannot be changed over DFU.
5. Send Flash Upload Finish to when all the data has been uploaded.
6. Finalize the DFU firmware update with command: Reset.

Reset
This command resets the Bluetooth module or the dongle. This command does not have a response, but the
consequent following event will be the normal boot event (system_boot) or the DFU boot event (dfu_boot) if
the DFU option is used and UART boot loader is installed.
There are three available boot loaders: USB for DFU upgrades using the USB-DFU protocol over the USB
interface, UART for DFU upgrades using the BGAPI protocol over the UART interface, and OTA for the Overthe-Air upgrades.

5.11.2 Bluetooth Errors
Bluetooth errors
Authentication Failure (0x0205)
Pairing or authentication failed due to incorrect results in the pairing or authentication procedure. This could be
due to an incorrect PIN or Link Key
Pin or Key Missing (0x0206)
Pairing failed because of missing PIN, or authentication failed because of missing Key.
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 222 of 227
Memory Capacity Exceeded (0x0207)
Controller is out of memory.
Connection Timeout (0x0208)
Link supervision timeout has expired.
Connection Limit Exceeded (0x0209)
Controller is at limit of connections it can support.
Command Disallowed (0x020C)
Command requested cannot be executed because the Controller is in a state where it cannot process this
command at this time.
Invalid Command Parameters (0x0212)
Command contained invalid parameters.
Remote User Terminated Connection (0x0213)
User on the remote device terminated the connection.
Connection Terminated by Local Host (0x0216)
Local device terminated the connection.
LL Response Timeout (0x0222)
Connection terminated due to link-layer procedure timeout.
LL Instant Passed (0x0228)
Received link-layer control packet where instant was in the past.
Controller Busy (0x023A)
Operation was rejected because the controller is busy and unable to process the request.
Unacceptable Connection Interval (0x023B)
The Unacceptable Connection Interval error code indicates that the remote device terminated the connection
because of an unacceptable connection interval.
Directed Advertising Timeout (0x023C)
Directed advertising completed without a connection being created.
MIC Failure (0x023D)
Connection was terminated because the Message Integrity Check (MIC) failed on a received packet.
Connection Failed to be Established (0x023E)
LL initiated a connection but the connection has failed to be established. Controller did not receive any packets
from remote end.
More in detail, an attempt to open a connection is made by the master by sending only one CONNECT_REQ ,
after which the master immediately transitions to connected state (BT4.1 Vol 6 Part B 4.4.4). If the advertiser for
any reason (like interference) does not catch the packet it will just continue advertising, while the master
remains in a fast termination mode, where it will only send 6 packets before failing, independent of supervision
Bluegiga – A Silicon Labs Company
Page 223 of 227
timeout (in fact, a master starts using normal supervision timeout only after it has received at least one packet
from slave.) If the master does not receive anything by the time its 6 packets are sent, connection establishment
will be considered failed and this error will be reported to the host or to the BGScript. In a busy environment it is
normal to see roughly 1-2% error rate when opening connections.
