Windows 10 Bluetooth LE Application

Introduction

This application note explains the operation and processing flow of the Bluetoo th LE API of Windo ws

API using the Windows 10 Bluetooth LE application that can wirelessly communicate with an evaluation

board equipped with a Renesas Electronics Bluetooth

Low Energy technology compatible microcomputer or

module.

Bluetooth LE applications that run on Windows 10 are created in Microsoft Visu al Stud io Expr es s 20 17 for

Windows Desktop as Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications for the .NET Framework to pair,

connect, search for services and characteristics, and communicate data.
