Bluetooth support in XE7• RTL new unit: System.Bluetooth, System::Bluetooth• Multi-device API for Classic Bluetooth & Bluetooth LE• TBluetoothLE component• Classic Bluetooth classes– TBluetoothManager– TBluetoothAdapter– TBluetoothDevice

EMBARCADERO TECHNOLOGIES

Bluetooth and App Tethering

• To implement Classic Bluetooth support in your VCL and FMX apps:– Obtain an instance of TBluetoothManager.– Discover remote devices and pair with them.– Connect to the paired devices.– Exchange data with the connected devices.

EMBARCADERO TECHNOLOGIES

BluetoothLE and Devices• Use an instance of TBluetoothLEDevice to:

– Discover services that the remote device provides– Obtain detailed info including the characteristics

• Read and Write a characteristic value• Ask to be notified of changes in a Characteristic value

– SetCharacteristicNotification method– OnCharacteristicRead event handler

• Get the received signal strength indicator (RSSI)

• To obtain an instance of TBluetoothLEDevice– Use the StartDiscovery method or LastDiscoveredDevices property

EMBARCADERO TECHNOLOGIES

TBluetoothLE Component• Discovery

– DiscoverDevices– DiscoverServices

• Working with devices and services– DiscoveredDevices– OnEndDiscoverDevices– OnEndDiscoverServices– SetCharacteristicNotification– OnCharacteristicRead, OnCharacteristicReadRequest– OnCharacteristicWrite, OnCharacteristicWriteRequest– OnReadRSSI

EMBARCADERO TECHNOLOGIES

BluetoothLE GATT-based Profile Hierarchy• Generic Attribute Profile (GATT)

– Services are collections of characteristics and relationships to other services that encapsulate the behavior of part of a device

– https://developer.bluetooth.org/gatt/Pages/GATT-Specification-Documents.aspx

• If device is not GATT– Try using discovery– Contact the device manufacturer
