Hi,all.
I want to develop a Beacon.
So,I have quesetions:
Is there have newest beacon Develop project?
What Reference data for Guide to Develop？
Is need Special APK in Android system and Special Application in IOS system for test?
thanks .

Hi Yuanhang Wu,
No there isn't a new iBeacon project, you can use the existing Beacon reference design in order to develop the project you want, for beacon's there are application in Google Play store that pasrse different formats of Beacons as iBeacon, Altbeacon etc.....for example Locate is one of them that supports many beacon formats.
Thanks MT_dialog
Hi,all.
Ah,iBeacon there is a Standard Agreement? The existing Beacon project can used directly for Satisfied custom claim?
I haved view Beacon project. In it is nothing profile used,so I am not start.
please give me help.
thanks.
Hi YuanhangWu,
Sorry, i didn't get your problem, can you please rephrase?
The phone app you are using can't detect the beacon project?
Thanks MT_dialog
The existing Beacon project is standard,so,I can used the existing Beacon project directly.Right?
But i used a Beacon APP download from android Market，it is not work with the project.
I view Beacon project,but I see there is no profile that to be used in the project.
Why?
there is any document for the Beacon?
Application in IOS system also not work.
the APP cannot find the project. maybe because the APP_SCNRSP_DATA is not right.
APP_SCNRSP_DATA how to set it?
Thanks
Hi YuanhangWu,
灯塔是广告字符串,他们不t use any profiles, thats why you cant find one. The reason the application can not find the beacon is because the CompanyId field is popuated with an identifier different than the one it should be. You can find more information about the beacon application in UM-B-019.
Thanks MT_dialog
Hi all.
UART SPS
CPU <------------------------------------------>DA14580<------------------------------------------------------>PHONE
(1)
IIC SPS
CPU <------------------------------------------>DA14580<------------------------------------------------------>PHONE
(2)
In SPS project is used uart connect to cpu as (1).
But in my project the uart have been used.
So I want to used the IIC to replace UART for SPS project.
Is IIC is can used like this?
how to waked up the da14580 when the data come from CPU?
Is there any document for this project develop?
thanks.
Hi all.
I have an overview the existing Beacon project,I understood the beacon is a advertising only.
But the existing Beacon project's advertising data is Constant.
I have a question:
灯塔advertising same data Constantly?
The Beacon project's advertising data Will not change by requirement?
thanks
Hi YuanhangWu,
Yes you can change the advertising data either from the SPI or from the custom service when the device becomes connectable by using the button. When you connect to the beacon you can use the extra characteristics of the custom service to change the uuid, major, minor, companyid, advertising interval, tx power as document indicates.
Thanks MT_dialog
Thank you MT_dialog.
I have a other question:
Taking into account the real needs,is a SPI EEPROM Memory need for SPOTAR in beacon project?
thanks.
Hi YuanhangWu,
Yes if you want to use the SPOTAR module you need an SPI flash in order to store the second image.
Thanks MT_dialog
Hi all.
use DA14580_BEACON_3.40.6 project,only changed Advertising data.
14580 40pin chip,Minimum System,with no 32.768k crystal oscillator.
Can find by phone.
I have question is:
The current consumption is 100ua average?
How to reduce the current consumption?
thanks.
Hi YuanhangWu,
You can find all the available current measurements in the Beacon documentation. You can reduce the power consumption by setting longer advertising intervals.
Thanks MT_dialog
Hi MT_dialog,
Setting longer advertising intervals to 700 ms ,
test it is 20 ua average.
Is there any way to reduce the power consumption?
thanks.
Hi all,
I have two more detail question:
UM-B-019 document write this:
\xc5: Measured power at 1 m: -59 dBm,
如果我写0 xba字节,
can this handler be legal?
And write 0XBA for this byte will enhance power consumption?
Transmitted power amplifier can be adjust?
Where is the code to adjust it?
With no 32.768k crystal,
the RCX20 is more power consumption than 32.768K when sleep?
The RST pin is connect a resistance to GND.
Is this right?
In da14580 datasheet,RST is suspend.
Have more handle to reduce the power consumption?
thanks.
Hi YuanhangWu,
What kind of sleep are you using deep or extended, deep is less power consuming but it requires the OTP. The \xc5 value is just a static value that informs the android application about the output power of the beacon in 1m. With that value the android application can calculate the distance of the device. The RCX20 is not more power consuming by the XTAL, dialog recomends that the unused pins to be left as floating but i suppose that you are ok with the reset pin to the ground and it wont cause you any trouble. Also you can reduce the transmited power by using Near Field Mode (check the datasheet page 153, Note 25 for further information). You can enable the near field mode by defining NEAR_FIELD_MODE_ENABLED.
Thanks MT_dialog
