#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
// El TXD del módulo al pin 2 (RX) del Arduino.
// El RXD del módulo al pin 3 (TX) del Arduino.
SoftwareSerial HM10(2, 3);

#define LED11  11
#define LED12  12
#define LED13  13

char caracter = "";  
String mensaje = "";

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  HM10.begin(9600);
  pinMode(LED11, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(LED12, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(LED13, OUTPUT);
}

void loop(){
  if(HM10.available()) { 
  caracter = HM10.read();
  // Serial.println(caracter);
  mensaje = mensaje + caracter;

  if(caracter == NULL ) { 
     Serial.println(mensaje); 
     if (mensaje == "on11") {digitalWrite(LED11,HIGH); estado = "LED11 ON";}
     if (mensaje == "off11"){digitalWrite(LED11,LOW); estado = "LED11 OFF";}
     if (mensaje == "on12") {digitalWrite(LED12,HIGH); estado = "LED12 ON";}
     if (mensaje == "off12"){digitalWrite(LED12,LOW); estado = "LED12 OFF";} 
     if (mensaje.indexOf("on13") >= 0){digitalWrite(LED13, HIGH); estado = "LED13 ON";}
     if (mensaje.indexOf("off13") >= 0){digitalWrite(LED13, LOW); estado = "LED13 OFF";}
     if (mensaje == "check"){
     estado ="";
     if (digitalRead(LED11) == HIGH) {estado = "on11,";} else {estado = "off11,";}
     if (digitalRead(LED12) == HIGH) {estado = estado + "on12,";} else {estado = estado + "off12,";}
     if (digitalRead(LED13) == HIGH) {estado = estado + "on13";} else {estado = estado + "off13";}
    }
     HM10.print(estado.c_str()); 
     mensaje = "";
     delay(100);
     }
  } 
}

• Two ways:

if (mensaje == "on11") this means if message is equal to "on11"

if (mensaje.indexOf("on13") >= 0) this means if message contains "on13"

• RegisterForString (Notifiy), when the HM10.print...

HM10.print(estado.c_str()); 

... variable "estado" is automatically sent to the app, note that Clock is not required.

• Be careful, the MTU of the HM-10 is 20 bytes (package), the messages must be less than 19 bytes + NULL

4.- Arrhythmia. Demo.

p110_UNO_HM10_corazon.aia (186.2 KB)

Arrhythmia is a problem with the rate or rhythm of your heartbeat. It means that your heart beats with a very irregular pattern.

This Arduino code:

// http://kio4.com/arduino/161_HM10_BLE.htm

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
// El TXD del módulo al pin 2 (RX) del Arduino.
// El RXD del módulo al pin 3 (TX) del Arduino.
SoftwareSerial HM10(2, 3);

void setup(){
  Serial.begin(9600);
  HM10.begin(9600);
}

void loop(){
      String nivel = (String) random(90,100);
      int ritmo = random(400,1600);
      delay(ritmo);
      String mensaje = nivel + "," + (String) ritmo;
      Serial.println(mensaje);
      HM10.print(mensaje.c_str());
}

create two random numbers, level (height) and rhythm, this is a variable delay.
delay(ritmo);

• We use RegisterForStrings (Notify).

[Juan_Antonio]

5.- Floats numbers.

p110_UNO_HM10_float.aia (184.6 KB)

Sometimes we want to work with float numbers, in this example I perform the operation with float numbers and then convert it to String and send it as String.

• It receives number (mensaje) as String, converts it toFloat, performs the operation on float, converts the result and send String.

flotante = 7.101031f * mensaje.toFloat() / 3.303071f;

// Juan A. Villalpando
// http://kio4.com/arduino/161_HM10_BLE.htm

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
// El TXD del módulo al pin 2 (RX) del Arduino.
// El RXD del módulo al pin 3 (TX) del Arduino.
SoftwareSerial HM10(2, 3);

char caracter = "";  
String mensaje = "";
float flotante = 1.0f;

void setup(){
  Serial.begin(9600);
  HM10.begin(9600);
}

void loop(){
  if(HM10.available()) { 
  caracter = HM10.read();
  mensaje = mensaje + caracter;
 
  if(caracter == NULL ) { 
     Serial.println(mensaje); 
     flotante = 7.101031f * mensaje.toFloat() / 3.303071f;
     Serial.println(flotante,7); // Muestra con 7 decimales.
     HM10.print(flotante,7); // Envía con 7 decimales.
     mensaje = "";
     delay(100);
     }
  } 
} 

This lines:

Serial.println(flotante,7); // Shows in Serial Monitor with 7 decimals.
HM10.print(flotante,7); // Sends with 7 decimals.

Convert flotante to String with 7 decimals.

[Juan_Antonio]

6.- AT commands.

Only accept AT Command when Bluetooth device is not connected with remote device.

Arduino code:

// Juan A. Villalpando
// http://kio4.com/arduino/161_HM10_BLE.htm

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
// El TXD del módulo al pin 2 (RX) del Arduino.
// El RXD del módulo al pin 3 (TX) del Arduino.
SoftwareSerial HM10(2, 3);

void setup(){
  Serial.begin(9600);
  HM10.begin(9600);
}
 
void loop(){
  if(HM10.available()){Serial.write(HM10.read());}
 
  if(Serial.available()) {HM10.write(Serial.read());}
}

8.- PIO (Programed Input Output). Stand-alone

PIO terminals do not work in this model MLT-BT05

But on the genuine HM-10 they do work. We can use the HM-10 Stand-alone module, that is, without connecting to the Arduino, independently.

• Look this Martyn Currey tutorial, he uses the genuine HM-10 in stand-alone mode, he can take the input and output signals from the HM-10's PIO terminals

10.- Two HM-10 connected to an Arduino UNO.

p110_UNO_dos_HM10.aia (186.9 KB)

The code for BLE1 creates three random numbers:
TemperatureBLE1 (10...60.000) with 3 decimals
HumidityBLE1 (5...99.000) with 3 decimals
interval_BLE1 (500...1000)

The code for BLE2 creates three random numbers:
TemperatureBLE2 (10...60.000) with 3 decimals
HumidityBLE2 (5...99.000) with 3 decimals
interval_BLE2 (500...2000)

In the variable intervals it sends the information to the application through "RegisterForStrings"

SoftwareSerial BLE2(4, 5);

long previousMillis_BLE1 = 0;
long previousMillis_BLE2 = 0;
int interval_BLE1 = 1000;
int interval_BLE2 = 1000;

void setup(){

  BLE1.begin(9600);
  BLE2.begin(9600);
}

void loop(){
  unsigned long currentMillis = millis();

  if(currentMillis - previousMillis_BLE1 > interval_BLE1) {
  previousMillis_BLE1 = currentMillis;  
  SendTo_BLE1();
  interval_BLE1 = random(500,1000);
  }

  if(currentMillis - previousMillis_BLE2 > interval_BLE2) {
  previousMillis_BLE2 = currentMillis;  
  SendTo_BLE2();
  interval_BLE2 = random(500,2000);
  }
}

  float HumidityBLE1 = random(5,99000)/1000.0;

  Serial.print(TemperatureBLE1,3);

  String mensajeBLE2 = temperatureBLE2 + "," + humidityBLE2;
  Serial.println(mensajeBLE2);
  BLE2.print(mensajeBLE2.c_str());  
}

• Note that the send intervals are NOT made using the delay function.
• I have used two ways of sending information.
• In the Blocks code, notice that I have used the same UUIDs for the two modules.

11.- WriteBytes and WriteStrings.

p110i_UNO_hm10_WriteBytes.aia (199.2 KB)

• We convert text list
  ["65","66","67","68","69","70"]
  to number list_n.
  [65,66,67,68,69,70]

Send this list_n with "WriteBytes".

We can also send with "WriteStrings".

• Notice that WriteStrings adds the NULL character. If you want to avoid it, use the NullTerminateStrings block.

// Juan A. Villalpando

12.- Keypad in App sends number to Arduino & HM-10, show in LCD-I2C.

p110i_UNO_hm10_LCD.aia (192.5 KB)

This example is based on this topic.

A keypad sends a number of less than 5 digits by BLE HM-10 to Arduino UNO and is displayed on an LCD-I2C

  caracter = HM10.read();
  // Serial.println(caracter);
  mensaje = mensaje + caracter;

  if(caracter == NULL ) { 
     Serial.println(mensaje); 
     mensaje = mensaje.substring(0, mensaje.length() - 1); // Delete last char   
     lcd.clear();
     lcd.setCursor(0,0);

Are you using Arduino UNO and HM-10? Does the second example of this topic (LED) work for you?

[Juan_Antonio]

13.- HM-10 sends a long text to app.

p110_UNO_HM10_TextoLargo.aia (185.3 KB)

• HM-10 sends five random numbers with decimals, each random delay (500 - 1000 ms)
• It sends the data separated by commas and ends the message with the '#' character.

// Juan A. Villalpando
// http://kio4.com/arduino/161_HM10_BLE.htm

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
// El TXD del módulo al pin 2 (RX) del Arduino.
// El RXD del módulo al pin 3 (TX) del Arduino.
SoftwareSerial BLE1(2, 3);

long previousMillis_BLE1 = 0;
int interval_BLE1 = 1000;

void setup(){
  Serial.begin(9600);
  BLE1.begin(9600);
}

void loop(){
  unsigned long currentMillis = millis();
  if(currentMillis - previousMillis_BLE1 > interval_BLE1) {
  previousMillis_BLE1 = currentMillis;  
  SendTo_BLE1();
  interval_BLE1 = random(500,1000);
  }
}

void SendTo_BLE1(){
  float x1 = random(10,60000)/1000.0; // 3 decimals
  float x2 = random(5,99000)/100.0; // 2 decimals
  float x3 = random(5,99000)/10.0; // 1 decimal
  float x4 = random(50,990000)/1000.0; // 3 decimals
  float x5 = random(500,990000)/1000.0; // 3 decimals

  BLE1.print(x1,3);
  BLE1.print(",");
  BLE1.print(x2,2);
  BLE1.print(",");
  BLE1.print(x3,1);
  BLE1.print(",");
  BLE1.print(x4,3);
  BLE1.print(",");
  BLE1.print(x5,3);
  BLE1.print(",");
  BLE1.print("#"); // End Of Message.
}

• App receives this information in packets of 20 characters in stringValues, for example:

(19.650,729.62,4154.3)(,584.019,279.315,#)

• The total variable accumulates the information until it contains the character '#'

• Cleans the information and makes it list.

19.650,729.62,4154.3,584.019,279.315, #

(19.650 729.62 4154.3 584.019 279.315 #)

(*)
Another way, send the last number using println()

BLE1.println(x5,3); 
// BLE1.print(","); 
// BLE1.print("#"); // End Of Message.

and modify the block piece: \n

15.- Pushbutton in Arduino sends (1) or (0) to App.

p110_UNO_boton_HM10.aia (184.2 KB)

• When you press the Pushbutton7, (1) or (0) is sent to the app.
  As it receives (1) or (0) it will change the color of the btn_color to green or red.
  Notification (RegisterForString) is used.

hi
Thank you very much for this tutorial.

If I send a GPS location to the APP, how can I show it on the map?
Or if I send a site link to the APP, how can I show the link so that a web page will open by clicking on the link?
