CY8CKIT-042-BLE-A QUICK START GUIDE
BLUETOOTH® LOW ENERGY PIONEER KIT
• Insert the 3-V coin cell (included with the kit)
into the coin cell holder on the rear side of
the baseboard
• Connect the dongle to your computer's USB port.
This demo does not require installing the drivers
for Windows 8 or earlier versions. Refer to Kit
Guide
for Windows 8.1 or later
• Press the button SW2 on both the dongle and the
baseboard. The red LED on the baseboard and
the blue LED on the dongle will stay on for three
seconds before turning off, indicating a Bluetooth
low energy connection between the two boards

• Move your nger over the CapSense® slider on
the baseboard to control the brightness of the
blue LED on the dongle

Note: If you are evaluating this demo near another BLE Pioneer Kit that is advertising (when using the default
out-of-box rmware), the dongle may connect to the other baseboard instead. In this case, press the reset button
(SW1) on both the dongle and baseboard of your kit, then repeat step 3 to retry connection between the two
