Getting Started with BlueNRG Shield

This example demonstrates how to use the Nucleo BlueNRG shield with the STM32F411 Nucleo board to obtain heart rate information:

First, attach the BlueNRG shield to the Nucleo board as shown here: /media/uploads/sjallouli/bluenrg_shield.jpg

Next, connect the STM32F411 Nucleo board to your PC with a USB cable.

Now return to the Nucleo_BLE_HeartRate project homepage and import the project into your mbed compiler:

Compile and load the image onto the F411 Nucleo board

Note

Refer to Getting Started with mbed and the STM32F411 Nucleo Board to learn how to compile and load a program onto the Nucleo board

Open a terminal window to display the status of your Bluetooth stack. For this example, set the terminal BAUD rate to 9600

Note

Refer to Creating Console Output for setting a terminal emulator

You should now see the various Bluetooth stack staus displayed on your console output. /media/uploads/sjallouli/concole_output.jpg
