BC127 - Custom BLE Profile

IoT Modules
1

Hi

I am evaluating BC127 for our project and have got the BC127 Evaluation kit with me. The module came preprgrammed with Melody version 6.1.5.

Our application requires a custom BLE profile, my understanding is that it requires use of " BC127 Melody BLE db gen" (https://source.sierrawireless.com/resources/airprime/tools/bc127-melody-ble-db-gen/#sthash.qh3UVGek.dpbs). This looks like to be a python application and I am unable to run it on my Windows 7 machine - same issue as experienced by another use Broken BC127 Melody BLE db gen tool (I like to add the Battery GATT service).

Could anyone help resolving this please? and if this is indeed still the correct to use custom BLE profile with BC127?

Many thanks

I ended up writing my own utility in VC using Sierra Wireless db_gen dll file.

@s.ali,

FYI we have managed to get this working on a Win10 machine with Python 2.7 installed.

Its not just the version number of Python. It matters what OS type you run. The supplied dll only works using the 32 Bit version of Python 2.7. I am running x64 Windows 10 machine.

I uninstalled my x64 version of Python, I installed Python 2.7.18 (x86) version and tried again. I’m happy to report that the db_gen.dll now works with the provided ble_database.py file.

Please try a 32 bit version of python for this!!!
