Secure communications? #2

Open ipatch opened 9 years ago

ipatch commented 9 years ago

I am sure it is possible to enable a sort of secure communications, which would only allow a specific device to communicate with the Bluno based on something like a MAC address, but I am not sure how it could be implemented, and I am not sure if that would require it's own project. However there does seem to be interest in this topic. I didn't see any reference to this topic here in the project nor did I see any info on the wiki of the Bluno.

Hello Chris,

You could check the bluno wikihttp://www.dfrobot.com/wiki/index.php/Bluno_SKU:DFR0267#Wireless_Programming_via_BLE page.

There are two AT command which you will be interested in.

"AT+CMODE=UNIQUE" & "AT+BIND=0xYourBluetoothMACAddress"

it will change your connection mode and bind your destination address with these two commands.

I took your advise, and read the wiki, and tried setting up communications / pairing of the device with only a unique device, but I did not have much luck pairing the device. I wrote a question over at the DFRobot forums, here => http://www.dfrobot.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1366
