Changing the name of BM70 BLE module without Microchip's evaluation board


I am trying to customize the name of my BM70 BLE module. I am not using the BM70 PICTail evaluation board. Instead I am using the MSP430F4799 microcontroller to communicate with the module and to configure the P2_0 pin and other necessary hardware pins. I tried with the UI configuration tool and manual pattern test tool to change the name of the BM70 module with the COM port where the UART of the MSP430 is connected but it did not work. Now my question is there any way to access command set protocol of BM70 module without using the PICTail evaluation board?


Solution

  • you can do that in the same way as BM71 module. You can read about the whole process in my blog at bijan.binaee.com/index.php/2018/08/03/bm71-no-uart-response/
