The LE Mouse application is a single chip SoC solution based on the HID over GATT Profile (HOGP).
During initialization the app registers with the LE stack, AIROC™ HID Device Library, and keyscan HW to receive various notifications including bonding complete, connection status change, peer GATT request/commands, and interrupts for button pressed/released. Press the User button on the board to start LE advertising. When the device is successfully bonded with a host, the app saves the bonded host's information in NVRAM. When the user presses/releases the button, a HID report will be sent to the host. On connection up or battery level changed, a battery report will be sent to the host. When battery level is below shutdown voltage, the device will critical shutdown.
- GATT database and Device configuration initialization
- Registration with LE stack for various events
- Sending HID reports to the host
- Processing write requests from the host
- Low power management
- Over the air firmware update (OTAFU)
To demonstrate the app, walk through the following steps:
- Plug in the AIROC™ board or mouse HW into your computer
- Build and download the application.
- If the download failed due to not able to detecting device, make sure the HCI COM port is not opened by other application (such as ClientControl) and repeat step 2. If it still fails, try the following recovery procedure: a. Place a jumper to bypass Serial Flash in remote control (or press and hold the Recovery button in AIROC™ board), then power up the hardware (or press reset button in AIROC™ board). b. Remove the jumper (or release the Recovery button in AIROC™ board) so that download procedure below can write to Serial Flash. Go back to step 2.
- Unplug the EVAL board or the mouse HW from your computer (i.e. unplug the UART cable).
- Power cycle the EVAL board or the mouse HW.
- Press the User button to start LE advertising, then pair with a PC or Tablet.
- Once connected, it becomes the mouse of the PC or Tablet.
In case what you have is only the AIROC™ EVAL board, you can reset the device while pressing and holding the User button. The device will enter Discovery mode. Once the device is in Discovery mode for pairing, you can release the User button.
Using the ClientControl tool: NOTE: Make sure the compile flag "TESTING_USING_HCI=1" is set in the application makefile. This allows the ClientControl host PC application to control the device via the HCI_UART port.
For 20835 devices:
- Plug the hardware into your computer
- Build and download the application
- Run ClientControl.exe.
- Choose 3M as Baudrate and select the serial port in the ClientControl tool window.
- Reset the device. (Press reset button or unplug/plug the USB cable). Within 2 seconds, before the device enters deep sleep, open the port. If the HIDD tab on ClientControl is not activated, close the port and repeat step 5. Once the HID tab is activated, the HID buttons will become available.
- Click on "Enter Pairing Mode" to start pairing, then pair with a PC or Tablet.
- Once connected, it becomes the mouse of the PC or Tablet.
- Since iOS or Android may not show mouse action, the keyboard reports are implemented for demonstration of HID reports. Click on the key buttons to send the key reports. For example to send key down event when key '1' is pushed, report should be 01 00 00 1e 00 00 00 00 00. When key is released, it should send all keys up 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00. The �WICED evaluation board's User button is implemented as mouse Left Click. For example, you can move your mouse to any active button in ClientControl and press the User button as mouse left click to click on the ClientControl buttons.
- Clicking on the "Motion" button will automatically move the mouse cursor diagonally.
- To send mouse reports, use Interrupt channel, Input report. Enter the contents of the report and click on the Send button, to send the report. For example, report contents should be as shown below for the following events:
- To send button down event when LEFT button is pushed:
08 01 00 00 00 00 - To send All buttons up event:
08 00 00 00 00 00 - To send scroll up event:
08 00 00 00 00 ff - To send scroll down event:
08 00 00 00 00 01 - To send mouse cursor (Y+8) event:
08 00 00 80 ff 00 - To send mouse cursor (Y-8) event:
08 00 00 80 00 00 - To send mouse cursor (X+8) event:
08 00 08 00 00 00 - To send mouse cursor (X-8) event:
08 00 f8 0f 00 00
-
TESTING_USING_HCI
- Use this option for testing with the ClientControl host application. The ClientControl UI can be used to provide input. When this option is enabled, the device will not enter SDS/ePDS for power saving.
-
OTA_FW_UPGRADE
- Use this option for enabling firmware upgrade over the Air (OTA) capability.
-
OTA_SEC_FW_UPGRADE
- Use this option for secure OTA firmware upgrade. OTA_FW_UPGRADE option must be enabled for this option to take effect.
-
LE_LOCAL_PRIVACY
- When enabled, the device uses RPA (Random Private Address). When disabled, the device uses Public static address.
BTSDK AIROC™ chips contain the embedded AIROC™ Bluetooth® stack, BTSTACK. Different chips use different versions of BTSTACK, so some assets may contain variant sets of files targeting the different versions in COMPONENT_btstack_vX (where X is the stack version). Applications automatically include the appropriate folder using the COMPONENTS make variable mechanism, and all BSPs declare which stack version should be used in the BSP .mk file, with a declaration such as:
COMPONENTS+=btstack_v1
or:
COMPONENTS+=btstack_v3
Application settings below are common for all BTSDK applications and can be configured via the makefile of the application or passed in via the command line.
Set the BDA (Bluetooth® Device Address) for your device. The address is 6 bytes, for example, 20819A10FFEE. By default, the SDK will set a BDA for your device by combining the 7 hex digit device ID with the last 5 hex digits of the host PC MAC address.
Set to the UART port you want to use to download the application. For example 'COM6' on Windows or '/dev/ttyWICED_HCI_UART0' on Linux or '/dev/tty.usbserial-000154' on macOS. By default, the SDK will auto-detect the port.
For HW debugging, configure ENABLE_DEBUG=1. See the document AIROC™-Hardware-Debugging for more information. This setting configures GPIO for SWD.

BTSDK chips support downloading applications either to FLASH storage or to RAM storage. Some chips support only one or the other, and some chips support both.
If a chip only supports one or the other, this variable is not applicable, applications will be downloaded to the appropriate storage supported by the device.
If a chip supports both FLASH and RAM downloads, the default is to download to FLASH, and the DIRECT_LOAD make variable may be set to 1 in the application makefile (or in the command line make command) to override the default and download to RAM.
Currently, the following chips support both FLASH and RAM download and can set DIRECT_LOAD=1 if desired:
- CYW20835
- CYW20706
