Bluetooth 4.0 BLE Pro Xbee Form factor (Master/Slave and iBeacon)

Introduction

So it turns out that your XBee based device would work even better as a BLE device… that probably means back to the drawing board, right? Well not anymore! Now you can swap in BLE functionality without a major hardware redesign! 

Bluetooth 4.0 BLE Pro Xbee Form factor  (Master/Slave and iBeacon) integrates an openhapp Serial Bluetooth BLE module HM-10. Support Central and Peripheral mode switch, modify by AT command.

Support Remote control mode, remote device can control PIO pin or modify settings by AT commander when Connected. (such as Iphone4s/5 ipad, Note2 etc.)

The Bluetooth UART serial Converter Module can easily transfer the UART data through the wireless Bluetooth, without complex PCB layout or deep knowledge in the Bluetooth software stack, you can combine this bluetooth module with your system:

• MCU, ARM or DSP systems.
• SOC systems.
• Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs)
• Computer Accessories
• Other systems your want to use under bluetooth functions.
