CY8CKIT-042-BLE Windows GUI

[Anonymous]

Hi,
I apologize for this absolute beginner topic, but in the last days of my research I get more and more confused 😉

I have to do a (little) project with the PSoC4-BLE. Up to now I am familiar with (some) of the PSoC-Creator examples (and a lot of helpful videos) and I am able to receive data via BLE within the CySmart emulation tool. For example I can change a value in the emulation tool by using the CapSense on the development board.

But how do I exchange data with any self-made windows program??? I just need a very simple GUI just to see if a capsens has been touched or to send a value for changing the onboard LED color…

I didn’t find any Python, C or even Java library to include so that I can use the windows API. Can I program such a GUI with the WICED SDK? Or do you know any useful IDE that provides the possibility to communicate with the CY5677 USB Dongle. (A LabView-VI would help as well, but I didn’t find that at all.)

It would be perfect if I could get some code to start learning how to create a windows based communication to PSoC 4 via BLE.

I just get stuck in my research about the possibilities of the PSoC BLE…

Thank you very much,

Jens

Hello,

  You can refer the CySmart API reference document for developing your own Windows GUI from the link- http://www.cypress.com/file/232791/download

Also , you can refer the sample example project from this thread- CySmart API C# example

Hi Gyan,

that will held, thank you!

Just one word concerning Wiked Smart IDE: is it preferable to use this IDE from Cypress to programm a windows GUI for the communikation with a Cypress BLE Dongel?

Best, Jens

Hello Jens,

  The WICED Smart IDE is used to develop the application and program the Cypress Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chips.

To communicate with CySmart BLE USB Dongle , you have to develop your windows Application like CySmart App using C# APIs as mentioned in response #1. Please go through the document on how you can develop your own windows GUI to communicate with CySmart BLE-USB Dongle.
