Drag and drop the BLE component on the virtual phoneвЂ™s screen and use the MAC address and UUID noted before to establish the connection. Once the UI is ready, import the Bluetooth Low Energy by MIT extension from the Extension menu of the App Inventor. If you prefer not to do all yourself, you can download the project file or the final application. With the help of the MIT App Inventor, design a user interface (UI) by dragging and dropping the desired UI elements onto the virtual phone.

Now it is time to create the Android application. Make a note of it, as you will need them later on. While testing the Pmod BLE, make sure that you run the BLE Scanner application to detect the MAC address and the UUID of the Pmod BLE. Place them in the same folder as the HAL and Pmod folders and run them.

The necessary test scripts are available here. After this, download the library files for the Pmods, which control the hardware. This file contains all the constants required for every WaveForms instrument. Next, copy the dwfconstants.py file from the WaveForms installation path to the folder as well. Please note that not all the functions inside the modules have been tested, so there might be errors. Copy all files to a new folder of your choice. You can download the library from DigilentвЂ™s website. AD Pro is controlled by a Python script through the WaveForms SDK (Software Development Kit).

The first step is to download the hardware abstraction layer (HAL) library for the Analog Discovery Pro.

The free WaveForms software from Digilent is needed for testing and debugging. Other parts, like a USB connector, a programmable current source, an operational amplifier, and a couple of resistors are required as well. Additionally, a Pmod DA1 and a Pmod OD1 are used for the control circuit. The project employs a 5 mm RGB LED as a lamp, a Pmod BLE (175-2110)ДЇor communication, and a Pmod ALS (134-6463)ДЇor the ambient light measurement. The lamp is powered by a battery, which can be charged from DigilentвЂ™s Analog Discovery Pro (AD Pro) (222-2677) This project is about turning on and off a lamp and changing its colour through an application running on an Android smartphone over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).
