IOS-nRF-Toolbox

The nRF Toolbox is a container app that stores your Nordic Semiconductor apps for Bluetooth Smart in one location.

New in v4.1:

• The application is now Fully migrated to Swift3.0
• Bugfix: Importing of distribution packets via email no longer crashes
• Bugfix: Glucose monitor demo no longer crashes/displays incorrect timestamps when the device uses the 12 hour format locale
• Bugfix: Glucose monitor demo no longer duplicates data on the last row when refresh button is tapped

New in v4.0:

• The application is fully migrated to Swift2.2
• Added Continuous Glucose Monitor profile support
• The Application now uses the Cocoapods version of our DFU Library. See cocoapods/iOSDFULibrary
• Minor bugfixes in characteristics reading on some profiles

New in v3.0:

• The application uses DFU Library, instead of having it's own implementation. See IOS-DFU-Library.

New in v2.5:

• Refreshed Look & Feel
• Better user experience in DFU and UART profiles
• Bug fixes

It contains applications demonstrating Bluetooth Smart profiles:

• Cycling Speed and Cadence,
• Running Speed and Cadence,
• Heart Rate Monitor,
• Blood Pressure Monitor,
• Health Thermometer Monitor,
• Glucose Monitor,
• Proximity Monitor.

Device Firmware Update

The Device Firmware Update (DFU) profile allows you to update the application, bootloader and/or the Soft Device image over-the-air (OTA). It is compatible with Nordic Semiconductor nRF5x devices that have the S-Series SoftDevice and bootloader enabled. From version 1.5 onward, the nRF Toolbox has allowed to send the required init packet. More information about the init packet may be found here: init packet handling.

The nRF Toolbox 3.0 is using the DFULibrary framework, available here: IOS-DFU-Library. The library is required to compile the project. Please, follow the steps in this repository to add it to the project.

The DFU has the following features:

• Scans for devices that are in DFU mode.
• Connects to devices in DFU mode and uploads the selected firmware (Softdevice, Bootloader and/or application).
• Allows HEX or BIN file upload through your phone or tablet.
• Allows to update a Softdevice and/or bootloader and application from ZIP automatically.
• Pause, resume, and cancel file uploads.
• Includes pre-installed examples that consist of the Bluetooth Smart heart rate service and running speed and cadence service.

Note

• iOS 8.0 and above is required.
• iPhone 4S or newer is required.
• iPad 3 or newer is required.
• Compatible with nRF5x devices with S-Series Softdevice and DFU Bootloader flashed.
• nRF51 and nRF52 Development kits can be ordered from http://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/Buy-Online.
• The SDK and SoftDevices are available online at http://developer.nordicsemi.com.
