8 years ago When you open up an Adafruit Feather M0 Bluefruit LE example (Arduino IDE), it also opens up a config file. Check the values in the config file "BluefruitConfig.h" that is included in each example.

8 years ago Additionally, the example sketches from Adafruit are configured to use hardware SPI near the top of each sketch.

8 years ago Hi. Thank you for your answer @zrecore Yes, I have checked the sketch; https://cdn-learn.adafruit.com/assets/assets/000/030/930/original/adafruit_products_2889_pinout_v1_0.png?1457306365
That shows RST, CS and IRQ pins.
And BluefruitConfig.h has these pins;
Any opinion if which one is what?.. Or how should I configure?..

8 years ago They can't both act as peripherals and talk to each other (yet). You need them to talk to a central device.

8 years ago I have read it now. But couldnt be sure to understand exactly. It says, bluetooth device should connect to a centeral device such as mobile phone etc..
So, that means, my adafruit feather and my pc can't connect to each other as a HID gamepad?..

8 years ago Any opinion @zrecore ?

8 years ago Yes, a BLE peripheral can connect to a PC, or a smart device (assuming BLE support).
The PC or smartphone would act as the central device. The Bluefruit LE board would act as the peripheral.
Do you have your source code on github? Maybe taking a look at it will help. On Jun 14, 2016 10:42 AM, "orcinz" notifications@github.com wrote:

8 years ago Well, that is the problem already @zrecore
Adafruit official library dont let me configure my device as HID gamepad.
bleHIDPeripheral.setLocalName("HID Keyboard");
bleHIDPeripheral.addHID(bleKeyboard);
bleHIDPeripheral.begin();
Serial.println(F("BLE HID Keyboard"));This is the code for HID Keyboard configuration. But there is no such code for HID gamepad.
Thats why I wanted to use arduino-BLEPeripheral library. So that i could connect my adafruit feather as a HID Gamepad..
"The hardware can do it, but we don't have any existing code that configures the nRF51822 to act like a joystick."
Thats what support told me when I ask Adafruit forums..

8 years ago Any idea @zrecore ?
zrecore

8 years ago Most likely, you will need to create an HID Joystick profile (either with the BLEPeripheral API, or with the Nordic Semiconductor Developers Kit)
Your device must provide the correct descriptor for an HID Joystick. Perhaps you can research this a bit further. https://github.com/troystribling/nordic-ble-sdk-examples
Any idea @zrecore https://github.com/zrecore ?

8 years ago Tried that too.. Not working..
Do you have any idea about REQ, RDY and RST pins of adafruit feather according to that sketch;
Are they RST, CS and IRQ pins?
If so, even I tried all combinations between these 3 pins, why doesnt that work?
I am suffering here and requesting your little help @zrecore
zrecore
commented
8 years ago Yes, by default. The Adafruit examples (such as the data mode example) use hardware SPI with those pons as the default.
Without any idea of how your board is wired up, what firmware is on the BLE module, what your code looks like, etc... I can't really help you further.
Pictures, code, video, etc. will help further investigate the issue. On Jun 15, 2016 8:45 AM, "orcinz" notifications@github.com wrote:

With that code, I connect my Adafruit Feather As Bluetooth HID Keyboard.
But in Adafruit Feather Library there is no option to configure my device as Bluetooth HID Gamepad.
I tried to use code shared here.
I downloaded the zip, copied library and examples to my arduino folder, opened HID Keyboard example and uploaded to my feather device.
Code uploaded without any errors.
As I open the serial, (in 115200 or 9600 tried both) there is nothing happening at the serial screen.
Then I search bluetooth devices with my PC and I see that my Adafruit Feather still shows itself as "Adafruit Bluetooth Device"
I mean, uploading the code which I downloaded from here, doesnt change my device's bluetooth settings.
I thought that may because of Bluetooth pins, I tried many combinations, but couldnt succeeded..
I dont know what else I need to share with my experience, but these are all I can tell you about.
I just want to configure my adafruit feather as Bluetooth HID Gamepad.
But couldnt succeeded for many days...
I hope you can help me with these informations I shared @zrecore

8 years ago @zrecore thanks for helping out!
@orcinz unfortunately this library only supports the Bluefruit LE based on the nRF8001. I think this is pretty clear in the read me. There was some discussion in #34 to support Adafruit board based on the nRF51822, however the conclusion wasn't possible to fully support it without running custom firmware.
However, if you're feeling adventurous you can try to load custom firmware on it using arduino-nRF5 with and external programmer and the nRF5 branch of this repo.

6 years ago Hi,
I am trying to get the Adafruit Feather 32u4 Bluefruit LE working with RPi and I2C. How do I put it into Slave mode or I2C mode or what is the Slave address on this module?! I have it connected without the pull up resistors to the RPi. I have other components attached to RPi with I2C and when I run "i2cdetect -y 1" from RPi, I do see the slave addresses of the other components (see below), but none for the "Adafruit Feather 32u4 Bluefruit LE ".
I also loaded the "Atcommand" sketch into Arduino and tried to use the "AT+HWI2CSCAN" from the serial line, but nothing comes back.

Hi.
I have an Adafruit Feather 32u4 Bluefruit LE use nRF51822 chipset.
Their official software doesnt support to modify HID. They just have mouse and keyboard option.
But i need to use my nRF51822 as gamepad device. So I tried to upload your code on my Adafruit Feather, but nothing changed. It seems like they dont communicate with each other. Is this maybe because of BLE_REQ, BLE_RDY, BLE_RST keys?
If so, how can I find my Adafruit Feather's pin combination?
Thanks in advance.
