I want to run a BLE Profile called <a href="https://developer.bluetooth.org/TechnologyOverview/Pages/PXP.aspx" rel="nofollow">"Proximity Profile" or PXP</a> on a Linux machine with bluez-5.17 installed.
PXP is, if i understand correctly, a collection of three ble services:
<ul>
<li>Link Loss Service</li>
<li>Immediate Alert Service</li>
<li>Tx Power Service</li>
</ul>
What i did so far. I followed the installation instructions on <a href="http://urbanjack.wordpress.com/2014/04/02/howto-install-bluez-and-dbus/" rel="nofollow">this site</a>.
Installation seems to be sucessfull.
I could run <em>hciconfig hci0 up</em> and <em>hcitool lescan</em>.
So but now i want to run the PXP profile and let the BLE USB dongle act as the gatt-server.
In the folder
is a file called <strong>proximity.conf</strong>. There is only one Option to set
. Since i want to enable all services i just removed every thing behind the equals-sign.
In the same folder is a file called
where i changed the option to <strong>AttributeServer = true</strong>. (Not sure if this was really necessary because in the text below i written that this is only useful for testing)
In
i added uuids of the services in the "profiles" file. For
for LinkLoss.
So i restarted the bluetooth service and expected it to work.
On the other side i have a two android apps as Proximity Reporter (gatt client). The first app is from the TI.com sample code. It scan and shoes all the gatt attributes. i use it to check whether the services are running. i also found an app called nRF Toolbox for BLE.
To make the long story short it's not working and i even have no clue how to run this PXP service. I was just trying it. Thank for helping !
