The Bluetooth Low Energy app can discover and display services, characteristics, and descriptors of a connected peer device's attribute table.

Service details

  • To view the handle and UUID of an attribute, move the mouse pointer over the attribute name.
    A hover text is displayed.

  • To view the characteristics of a service, click the Expand/collapse icon Expand/collapse icon.
    The characteristics have different buttons available depending on the associated properties. Read, write, and notify actions are available if the corresponding properties are available for the characteristic.

  • To view descriptors, expand the characteristics.

  • To configure the peer device to start sending notifications, click the Toggle notifications icon Toggle notifications.

When a device receives a notification, the corresponding attribute is highlighted, and its value is updated.

If a service or characteristic does not have any child attributes, the list is empty when you click the Expand/collapse icon.
