## Using the code example
Create the project and open it using one of the following:
<details><summary><b>In Eclipse IDE for ModusToolbox&trade; software</b></summary>
1. Click the **New Application** link in the **Quick Panel** (or, use **File** > **New** > **ModusToolbox&trade; Application**). This launches the [Project Creator](https://www.infineon.com/ModusToolboxProjectCreator) tool.
2. Pick a kit supported by the code example from the list shown in the **Project Creator - Choose Board Support Package (BSP)** dialog.
When you select a supported kit, the example is reconfigured automatically to work with the kit. To work with a different supported kit later, use the [Library Manager](https://www.infineon.com/ModusToolboxLibraryManager) to choose the BSP for the supported kit. You can use the Library Manager to select or update the BSP and firmware libraries used in this application. To access the Library Manager, click the link from the **Quick Panel**.
You can also just start the application creation process again and select a different kit.
If you want to use the application for a kit not listed here, you may need to update the source files. If the kit does not have the required resources, the application may not work.
3. In the **Project Creator - Select Application** dialog, choose the example by enabling the checkbox.
4. (Optional) Change the suggested **New Application Name**.
5. The **Application(s) Root Path** defaults to the Eclipse workspace which is usually the desired location for the application. If you want to store the application in a different location, you can change the *Application(s) Root Path* value. Applications that share libraries should be in the same root path.
6. Click **Create** to complete the application creation process.
For more details, see the [Eclipse IDE for ModusToolbox&trade; software user guide](https://www.infineon.com/MTBEclipseIDEUserGuide) (locally available at *{ModusToolbox&trade; software install directory}/docs_{version}/mt_ide_user_guide.pdf*).
</details>
<details><summary><b>In command-line interface (CLI)</b></summary>
ModusToolbox&trade; software provides the Project Creator as both a GUI tool and the command line tool, "project-creator-cli". The CLI tool can be used to create applications from a CLI terminal or from within batch files or shell scripts. This tool is available in the *{ModusToolbox&trade; software install directory}/tools_{version}/project-creator/* directory.
Use a CLI terminal to invoke the "project-creator-cli" tool. On Windows, use the command line "modus-shell" program provided in the ModusToolbox&trade; software installation instead of a standard Windows command-line application. This shell provides access to all ModusToolbox&trade; software tools. You can access it by typing `modus-shell` in the search box in the Windows menu. In Linux and macOS, you can use any terminal application.
This tool has the following arguments:
Argument | Description | Required/optional
---------|-------------|-----------
`--board-id` | Defined in the `<id>` field of the [BSP](https://github.com/Infineon?q=bsp-manifest&type=&language=&sort=) manifest | Required
`--app-id` | Defined in the `<id>` field of the [CE](https://github.com/Infineon?q=ce-manifest&type=&language=&sort=) manifest | Required
`--target-dir`| Specify the directory in which the application is to be created if you prefer not to use the default current working directory | Optional
`--user-app-name`| Specify the name of the application if you prefer to have a name other than the example's default name | Optional
<br>
The following example clones the "[mtb-example-btstack-freertos-battery-server](https://github.com/Infineon/mtb-example-btstack-freertos-battery-server)" application with the desired name "BatteryServer" configured for the *CY8CPROTO-062-4343W* BSP into the specified working directory, *C:/mtb_projects*:
```
project-creator-cli --board-id CY8CPROTO-062-4343W --app-id mtb-example-btstack-freertos-battery-server --user-app-name BatteryServer --target-dir "C:/mtb_projects"
```
**Note:** The project-creator-cli tool uses the `git clone` and `make getlibs` commands to fetch the repository and import the required libraries. For details, see the "Project creator tools" section of the [ModusToolbox&trade; software user guide](https://www.infineon.com/ModusToolboxUserGuide) (locally available at *{ModusToolbox&trade; software install directory}/docs_{version}/mtb_user_guide.pdf*).
To work with a different supported kit later, use the [Library Manager](https://www.infineon.com/ModusToolboxLibraryManager) to choose the BSP for the supported kit. You can invoke the Library Manager GUI tool from the terminal using the `make library-manager` command or use the Library Manager CLI tool "library-manager-cli" to change the BSP.
The "library-manager-cli" tool has the following arguments:
Argument | Description | Required/optional
---------|-------------|-----------
`--add-bsp-name` | Name of the BSP that should be added to the application | Required
`--set-active-bsp` | Name of the BSP that should be as active BSP for the application | Required
`--add-bsp-version`| Specify the version of the BSP that should be added to the application if you do not wish to use the latest from manifest | Optional
`--add-bsp-location`| Specify the location of the BSP (local/shared) if you prefer to add the BSP in a shared path | Optional
<br />
Following example adds the CY8CPROTO-062-4343W BSP to the already created application and makes it the active BSP for the app:
```
library-manager-cli --project "C:/mtb_projects/BatteryServer" --add-bsp-name CY8CPROTO-062-4343W --add-bsp-version "latest-v4.X" --add-bsp-location "local"
library-manager-cli --project "C:/mtb_projects/BatteryServer" --set-active-bsp APP_CY8CPROTO-062-4343W
```
</details>
<details><summary><b>In third-party IDEs</b></summary>
Use one of the following options:
- **Use the standalone [Project Creator](https://www.infineon.com/ModusToolboxProjectCreator) tool:**
1. Launch Project Creator from the Windows Start menu or from *{ModusToolbox&trade; software install directory}/tools_{version}/project-creator/project-creator.exe*.
2. In the initial **Choose Board Support Package** screen, select the BSP, and click **Next**.
3. In the **Select Application** screen, select the appropriate IDE from the **Target IDE** drop-down menu.
4. Click **Create** and follow the instructions printed in the bottom pane to import or open the exported project in the respective IDE.
<br />
- **Use command-line interface (CLI):**
1. Follow the instructions from the **In command-line interface (CLI)** section to create the application.
2. Export the application to a supported IDE using the `make <ide>` command.
3. Follow the instructions displayed in the terminal to create or import the application as an IDE project.
For a list of supported IDEs and more details, see the "Exporting to IDEs" section of the [ModusToolbox&trade; software user guide](https://www.infineon.com/ModusToolboxUserGuide) (locally available at *{ModusToolbox&trade; software install directory}/docs_{version}/mtb_user_guide.pdf*).
</details>
## Operation
### Battery Service
1. Connect the board to your PC using the provided USB cable through the KitProg3 USB connector.
2. Use your favorite serial terminal application and connect to the KitProg3 COM port. Configure the terminal application to access the serial port using the following settings.
Baud rate: 115200 bps; Data: 8 bits; Parity: None; Stop: 1 bit; Flow control: None; New line for receive data: Line Feed(LF) or Auto setting
3. Program the board using one of the following:
<details><summary><b>Using Eclipse IDE for ModusToolbox&trade; software</b></summary>
1. Select the application project in the Project Explorer.
2. In the **Quick Panel**, scroll down, and click **\<Application Name> Program (KitProg3)**.
</details>
<details><summary><b>Using CLI</b></summary>
From the terminal, execute the `make program` command to build and program the application using the default toolchain to the default target. The default toolchain is specified in the application's Makefile but you can override this value manually::
```
make program TOOLCHAIN=<toolchain>
```
Example:
```
make program TOOLCHAIN=GCC_ARM
```
**Note**: Before building the application, ensure that the *bsps* folder contains the BSP files in *TARGET_APP_xxx* folder. If the files ae missing use the library manager to add the same. You can invoke the Library Manager GUI tool from the terminal using `make library-manager` command or use the Library Manager CLI tool "library-manager-cli" to add/change the BSP.
</details>
After programming, the application starts automatically. Observe the messages on the UART terminal, and wait for the device to make all the required connections.
#### **Test using the AIROC&trade; Bluetooth&reg; Connect mobile app**
1. Turn ON Bluetooth&reg; on your Android or iOS device.
2. Launch the AIROC&trade; Bluetooth&reg; Connect app.
3. Press the reset switch on the kit to start BLuetooth&reg; LE advertisements. The red LED (LED1) starts blinking to indicate that advertising has started. Advertising will stop after 120 seconds if a connection has not been established.
4. Swipe down on the AIROC&trade; Bluetooth&reg; Connect app home screen to start scanning for BLuetooth&reg; LE peripherals; your device appears on the AIROC&trade; Bluetooth&reg; Connect app home screen. Select your device to establish a BLuetooth&reg; LE connection (see Figure 2). Once the connection is established, the user LED turns to 'always ON' state.
**Figure 2. AIROC&trade; Bluetooth&reg; Connect app device discovery**
![](../images/figure2.png)
5. Select Battery Service (see Figure 3) from the carousel view to check the battery levels. Tap **START NOTIFY** to get notifications of the changing battery level:
**Figure 3. AIROC&trade; Bluetooth&reg; Connect Battery Service app**
![](../images/figure3.png)
**Figure 4. Battery level**
![](../images/figure4.png)
6. Use the KitProg3 COM port to view the Bluetooth&reg; stack and application trace messages in the terminal window.
## Debugging
You can debug the example to step through the code. In the IDE, use the **\<Application Name> Debug (KitProg3_MiniProg4)** configuration in the **Quick Panel**. For more details, see the "Program and debug" section in the [Eclipse IDE for ModusToolbox&trade; software user guide](https://www.infineon.com/MTBEclipseIDEUserGuide).
**Note:** **(Only while debugging)** On the CM4 CPU, some code in `main()` may execute before the debugger halts at the beginning of `main()`. This means that some code executes twice - once before the debugger stops execution, and again after the debugger resets the program counter to the beginning of `main()`. See [KBA231071](https://community.infineon.com/t5/Knowledge-Base-Articles/PSoC-6-MCU-Code-in-main-executes-before-the-debugger-halts-at-the-first-line-of/ta-p/253856) to learn about this and for the workaround.
## Design and implementation
The code example implements a Bluetooth LE GATT Server for Battery Service.
The battery service is used to simulate the battery level, which changes continuously from 100 to 0 percent in steps of 2 percent. On reaching 0 it rolls back and starts from 100 again. The code example also has a periodic timer which sends battery level as a notification to the client.
## Resources and settings
This section explains the ModusToolbox&trade; software resources and their configuration as used in this code example. Note that all the configuration explained in this section has already been done in the code example. ModusToolbox&trade; software stores the configuration settings of the application in the *design.modus* file. This file is used by the graphical configurators, which generate the configuration firmware. This firmware is stored in the application’s *GeneratedSource* folder.
- **Device configurator:** The device configurator is used to enable/configure the peripherals and the pins used in the application. See the
[Device configurator guide](https://www.infineon.com/ModusToolboxDeviceConfig).
- **Bluetooth&reg; configurator:** The Bluetooth&reg; configurator is used for generating/modifying the Bluetooth&reg; LE GATT database. See the [Bluetooth configurator guide](https://www.infineon.com/ModusToolboxBLEConfig).
