Figure 1-1. DLP NIRscan Nano Block Diagram
The DLP NIRscan Nano EVM spectrometer optical engine is mounted on top of the electronics subsystem. The configuration is a post-dispersive architecture with a removable reflectance sample module. The reflectance module includes two lens-end broadband tungsten filament lamps. In this specific implementation, depicted in Figure 1-2, a sample is placed against the sapphire front window of the reflectance head. During a scan, the sample absorbs a specific amount of NIR light and diffusely reflects the non-absorbed light into the system. The amount of light absorbed at each wavelength is dependent on the molecular makeup of the material, and is specific to that material, a chemical fingerprint. The light diffusely reflected from the sample is gathered by the collection lens and focused into the optical engine

through the input slit. The slit size is chosen to balance wavelength resolution with SNR of the spectrometer. This spectrometer uses a 25-μm wide by 1.69-mm tall slit. The light that passes through the slit is collimated by the first set of lenses, passes through an 885-nm long wavepass filter, and then strikes a reflective grating. This grating, in combination with the focusing lens, disperses the light into its constituent wavelengths. The focusing lenses form an image of the slit at the DLP2010NIR DMD. Different wavelengths of this slit image are spread horizontally across the DLP2010NIR DMD. The optical system images 900-nm wavelengths to one end of the DMD and 1700-nm to the other end, with all other wavelengths dispersed in between. When specific DMD columns are selected as on, or tilted to the +17° position, the energy reflected by the selected columns is directed through the collection optics to the single pixel InGaAs detector. All other DMD columns selected as off, or tilted to the –17° position, diverts the unselected wavelengths away from the detector optical path so as not to interfere with the selected wavelength measurement.
The DLP NIRscan Nano reflectance module operates by illuminating the sample under test at an angle so that specular reflections are not collected, while gathering and focusing diffuse reflections to the slit. The illuminating lamps are designated as lens-end lamps because the front end of the glass bulb is formed into a lens that directs more light from the filament to the sample test region. The collection lens gathers collimated light from a 2.5-mm diameter region at the sample window. The size of the collection region was matched to the nominal illumination spot size created by the lens-end lamps. This requires that the sample be placed directly against the sapphire window, where the two angled light source paths intersect the collection vision cone of the lens. If the sample is shifted farther away from the window, the sample may not receive enough illumination for the system to perform an accurate scan.

What is the DLP NIRscan Nano EVM?

1.2.2 DLP NIRscan Nano Electronics

The DLP NIRscan Nano EVM contains the following four boards:
Microcontroller board: The Microcontroller board is the largest board in the DLP NIRscan Nano EVM.
This board includes the following: – Tiva TM4C1297 microcontroller: The Tiva processor controls the whole system. The Tiva runs the
TI realtime operating system (RTOS), the Bluetopia stack, and the spectroscopy software. When it
receives a scan command through USB, Bluetooth, or through pressing the scan button, the Tiva
streams through its LCD interface a set of unique wavelength specific patterns to the DLPC150 for
display on the DMD while synchronizing the sampling of the spectrometer's ADC. An external
32MB SDRAM allows for additional code storage and stores the pattern buffer streamed to the
DLPC150.
– External interfaces: The Microcontroller board provides two main interfaces to the outside world:
USB and Bluetooth Low Energy. To leverage the DLP NIRscan EVM platform for new product
development using the Tiva processor, the microcontroller board also contains a Tiva debug JTAG
port, which can be used with Code Composer Studio™ emulation software and XDS100, XDS200,
or XDS560 emulators. The Microcontroller board also includes and expansion connector with SPI,
UART, and GPIO capability for connection to external systems.
– Battery charging circuits: An optional 3.7-V Lithium-Ion or Lithium-Polymer can be added to power
the system. The on-board power management circuits of the bq24250 device take power from USB
and simultaneously charge the battery if its voltage is below 4.2 V at up to 1-A charge current. The
bq24250 also monitors an optional thermistor for battery temperature monitoring during charge.
– microSD card connector: The microSD card connector allows additional storage for scan data when
the system is not connected to a PC nor iOS device.
– HDC1000 humidity and temperature sensor: Measures the humidity and temperature of the system.
These values are captured with each scan.
DLP controller board: The DLPC150 controller board is the second largest board in the DLP NIRscan
Nano EVM. This board includes the following: – DLPC150 controller: The DLPC150 receives the pattern data from the Tiva TM4C1297 processor
over a 24-bit RGB bus. The DLPC150 decodes the pattern information and converts the information
into the correct format for the DLP2010NIR DMD. The DLPC150 controls and synchronizes all the
DMD signals, thereby directing each individual mirror to its desired state.
– DLPA2005 PMIC: The DLPA2005 is a power management IC that controls all the supplies to the
DLP2010NIR DMD and the DMD interface portion of the DLPC150 supplies.
– Lamp driver circuit: To provide constant current to the near-infrared lamps, a OPA567 based power
amplifier circuit regulates the current to the lamps to 280 mA at 5 V based on the voltage across a
sense resistor monitored by the INA213 current shunt monitor.
Detector board: The detector board includes the following:
– Transimpedance low-noise amplifier: Amplifies the signal form the InGaAs detector to the ADC. – ADS1255 ADC: Converts the amplified signal of the InGaAs detector into a 24-bit value for Tiva
processing.
– TMP006 thermopile sensor: Measures the InGaAs detector temperature and ambient temperature
of the system. These values are captured with each scan.
– 1-mm non-cooled Hamamatsu G12180-010A InGaAs photodiode
DMD board: The DMD board includes the DLP near-infrared digital micromirror. The DLP NIRscan Nano electronics contain many devices manufactured by Texas Instruments. Table 1-2
lists the main parts and their functions.

3.1.1 Scanning a Sample

The Scan button at the top of the NIRscan Nano GUI displays spectrum plots and controls scan configurations and parameters, as shown in Figure 3-2.
www.ti.com
22
Figure 3-2. DLP NIRscanNano GUI Scan Screen
A scan configuration must be created to scan a sample. (See Figure 3-3 for the Scan Configuration dialog screen.) A scan configuration specifies the following parameters of a scan:
Wavelength range: Start and End wavelengths (in nm) or spectral range of interest for the scan. The
minimum wavelength is 900 nm and the maximum wavelength is 1700 nm.
Width in nm: This number must be greater than 8 nm and corresponds to the desired smallest
wavelength content that you want to resolve in a scan. The DLP NIRscan Nano optical resolution is 10 nm, so values less than 10 nm result in lower signal intensity.
Number of patterns: This number defines how many wavelength points are captured across the
defined spectral range. Depending on the previous setting, the GUI computes the maximum number of patterns and indicates them as the "Max Limit."
Number of scans to average: This is the repeated back-to-back scans that are averaged together. Typical scan configuration parameters for four type of scans that resolve wavelength content in 20-, 15-,
10-, and 8-nm, are shown in Table 3-1.

The TPS81256 in the microcontroller board regulates the 5-V supply of the analog-to-digital converter (ADS1255), transimpedance amplifiers circuits (OPA350 and OPA2276), and 2.5-V reference voltage (REF5025) used in the detector board.
A second TPS81256 in the DLP controller board regulates the 5-V supply for the lamp driver (OPA567 and INA213). The lamp driver drives two parallel lamps at 5 V and 280 mA. Each lamp is rated to a maximum 140 mA at 5 V.
The TPS386596 serves as reset supervisor to hold the system in reset whiles all the supplies reach operational conditions. An external reset button issues a reset when the system has reached operational conditions.

Figure 4-2 shows the Tiva connections to the components on the microprocessor board and detector
board. The Tiva uses a 16-MHz external crystal as input to its on-board PLL to run the Tiva system at 120 MHz. A 32-kHz crystal supplies the clock to the Tiva's hibernation module and Bluetooth circuits. An external 32MB of SDRAM stores the patterns that are streamed to the DLPC150 through the Tiva's LCD interface. Tiva communicates to the HDC1000 and TMP006 sensors through its I2C6 and I2C7 peripherals. Both sensors generate a DRDY signal when a new value is available. This DRDY signals interrupt Tiva when a new value is available through PP7 for HDC1000 and PP6 for TMP006. Tiva's UART3 communicates with the CC2564MODN for Bluetooth transfers. The UART3 defaults to a 115200 baud transfer rate. Tiva's PH5 enables the Bluetooth circuits. Tiva interfaces to the microSD card through

SSI3 in SPI mode. Tiva's SSI1 interfaces to the ADS1255. The ADS1255 also generates a DRDY signal when conversion is completed interrupting the Tiva processor through PP2. Tiva generates a synchronization signal to the ADS1255 through PH6 to start an ADC conversion when a pattern is displayed by the DLP2010NIR. To monitor the battery charger bq24250, PQ5 serves as a Tiva interrupt and commands are sent through I2C9. PQ0, PQ1, and PQ2 allow Tiva to override default bq24250 parameters. The Wake and Scan buttons are connected to Tiva's WAKE and PQ3 pins. To measure battery voltage, TIva enables an analog MOSFET switch with PD5 to connect the battery to Tiva's ADC7 and perform a voltage measurement. An expansion headers supports a combination of Tiva SSI0 and UART4 pins. PF5, PH7, PL4 controls the green, blue, and yellow LED, respectively.

Figure 4-3 shows the Tiva connections to the DLPC150 controller board. Tiva powers up the DLP
subsystem through PJ7. The TIva's LCD interface is connected to the DLPC150 Parallel Port interface. Through this interface 24 patterns are transmitted per frame. DLPC150 sends two interrupts to the Tiva to indicate when a pattern is exposed (TRIG_OUT_2) and when a new frame begins (TRIG_OUT_1). For DLPC150 firmware updates, the Tiva con write to the DLPC150 serial flash through its SSI2 peripheral when the DLP subsystem is powered down. Tiva's PD2 controls the lamp. A lamp photodiode is measured by the DLPA2005 when a scan occurs. The value of the photodiode is transmitted to the DLPC150 and then to the Tiva. This photodiode measures the lamp intensity.

5.1 Overview

The DLP NIRscan Nano's Tiva microprocessor is the system's main control processor. The Tiva handles button presses, commands and data transfers over USB or Bluetooth, controls the DLP subsystem, streams the patterns to select specific wavelengths, captures data from InGaAs detector, activates lamps, and stores data in the microSD card. Due to the realtime nature of the system, the Tiva software includes TI-RTOS that coordinates tasks while handling realtime interrupts and semaphores. Low-level drivers for Tiva's USB, GPIO, EPI, I2C, LCD, SPI, and UART peripherals are handled by TivaWare libraries and routines. The Bluetopia Stack handles Bluetooth communications. DLP Spectrum Library handles pattern generation and data transformation from raw scan data to a wavelength spectrum. A command handler interprets commands from USB or Bluetooth and starts the tasks needed to execute the commands. The main application initializes the system and waits for commands from USB and Bluetooth. The overall software architecture depicting these components is shown in Figure 5-1.

Overview

5.1.2 TivaWare

TivaWare is a set of drivers for accessing the Tiva peripherals. DLP NIRscan Nano uses the following TivaWare drivers:
UART: Driver for Tiva interface with CC2564MODN
USB: Driver for HID transfers between Tiva and PC. The USB drivers handles Tiva's USB interrupts
SPI: Driver for Tiva interface with ADS1255
ADC: Driver to control Tiva ADC peripheral
GPIO: Driver to control Tiva GPIO pins
LCD: Driver to interface Tiva with DLPC150 parallel port

5.1.3 USB Driver

USB Communication to the DLP NIRscan Nano uses the HID class. Tiva enumerates as a slave USB 2.0 high power device. Appendix G lists the commands supported through USB.

5.1.4 SDSPI Driver

To store data on the microSD card, Tiva's SSI3 peripheral communicates with the microSD card using SPI mode (SDSPI). Tiva stores data on the microSD card using the file allocation table (FAT) file system.

5.1.5 Bluetopia Stack

The DLP NIRscan Nano wirelessly communicates using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) version 4.0. The Bluetooth communication is handled by the TI Bluetopia stack and the Cc2564MODN. The TI Bluetopia stack and CC2564MODN implement a fully certified Bluetooth 4.0 specification. The BLE wireless communication uses two main profiles for discovery and communication with a remote host:
GAP: Generic Access Profile for basic discovery and establishing connections.
GATT: Generic Attribute Profile for commands and data transfer. The DLP NIRscan Nano supports Bluetooth version 4.0 specification. When Bluetooth subsystem is
activated, the DLP NIRscan Nano broadcasts its availability while a smartphone, tablet or PC acts as an observer. Once connected, the DLP NIRscan Nano acts as a server for the GATT profile while the smartphone, tablet, or PC acts as a client.
The DLP NIRscan Nano Bluetooth GATT Profile supports the following services:
Battery Service (BAS) to provide battery charge capacity.
Device Information Service (DIS) to provide manufacturer name, model number, serial number, hardware revision, spectrum library revision, and Tiva software revision.
GATT General Information Service to provide temperature, humidity, status, hours of use, lamp hours, and battery recharge cycles.
GATT Date and Time Service to synchronize date and time information between smartphone, tablet, or PC to the Tiva's realtime clock.
GATT Calibration Service to provide calibration coefficients.
GATT Scan Configuration Service to provide stored configurations and scan configuration data.
GATT Scan Data Service to initiate scan, clear scan data, and return stored scan data.
The Tiva processor handles these profiles and uses the logical link control and adaptation protocol (L2CAP) to pass packets through a host controller interface (HCI). The Tiva's UART3 peripheral communicates with the CC2564MODN HCI module. The CC2564MODN transmits these packets to the client device.

5.1.6 DLP Spectrum Library

The DLP spectrum library is a collection of C-language routines that provide the fundamental pieces to use a DLP system in a spectroscopy application. The DLP spectrum library is resolution and host processor independent, allowing the routines to be used with different DMD resolutions and processor systems. The routine sources are shared by the Tiva code, the GUI code, and the iOS App. The DLP Spectrum Library are classified into three main categories:
Scan: Performing a column or Hadamard scan by: – Generating the appropriate full-frame DMD patterns based on a specific scan configuration. – Computing reflectance and absorbance data form the intensity data during a scan. – Handling serialization and deserialization of scan configuration and scan data.
Calibration: Calibrating a system at the factory by: – Finding peaks from a scan of a calibrated lamp. – Finding the full width half maximum of specific peaks data of a calibration scan. – Computing the calibration coefficients for a system.
Utilities: Utilities to handle: – Conversion between DMD mirror column position to a calibrated wavelength or wave number, and
vice versa. – Spectrum data calculations, such as: absorbance, reflectance, and spectrum comparisons. – Matrix operations. – Binary pattern packing.
The DLP NIRscan Nano utilizes a previously-created scan configuration (through the GUI or stored on the NIRscan Nano) to perform a scan. This scan configuration is created on the NIRscanNanoGUI and transferred to the system in serialized fashion. The system's Tiva processor deserializes this data and generates a set of full-frame DMD patterns based on the scan configuration and the factory-stored calibration data. Then, the Tiva turns on the lamps and streams the full-frame DMD patterns to perform a scan. Tiva collects several data points for each pattern from the detector's ADC conversion. This data is stored in a structure, and is then serialized and transferred to the PC through USB or Bluetooth. The NIRscanNanoGUI or the iOS App deserializes this scan data, interprets it using the DLP Spectrum Library, and plots the resulting spectrum.
Overview

5.1.7 DLP Spectrum Library Workflow

The following sections show the use of the DLP Spectrum Library workflow to read scan configuration information, decode scan data, and compute reference, absorbance, and reflectance.
5.1.7.1 Scan Configuration Workflow
The DLP Spectrum Library routine to interpret scan configuration information is dlpspec_scan_read_configuration(). This routine takes as input the serialized scan configuration transferred through USB or Bluetooth and deserializes to extract all the scan configuration information.
Figure 5-2 shows the typical workflow to view configuration information. The white input box denotes USB
scan configuration data, while the blue input box denotes Bluetooth scan configuration data.

Software System Overview
The DLP Spectrum Library computes the absorbance of a scan based on the negative of the logarithm (based 10) of the reflectance. Figure 5-6 shows the typical workflow to compute the reflectance.
Figure 5-6. DLP Spectrum Library Compute and Display Absorbance
The DLP NIRscan Nano software uses a sets of tasks, hardware interrupts, and semaphores to coordinate the efforts needed to interpret USB or Bluetooth commands, respond to button presses, scan an object, and capture the InGaAs detector values. Figure 5-7 shows a high-level block diagram of the software elements of the system. The DLP NIRscan Nano system includes the following hardware interrupt handlers to respond to hardware events:
Button Interrupt Handler: Responds to Scan/Bluetooth button presses and Wake button presses.
Trigger Interrupt Handler: Synchronizes and keeps track of the pattern displayed during a scan. Two interrupts from the DLPC150 (ihFrameTrigger and ihPatternTrigger) indicate when a pattern has been displayed, when 24 patterns have completed the display, and when the DLPC150 buffer needs to be reloaded with new patterns. This handler also captures data from the ADS1255 when a pattern is displayed. It uses the ADS1255 DRDY signal to trigger the read of the just-converted value.
Display Interrupt Handler: Controls the Tiva LCD peripheral and its frame buffer that resides in external SDRAM. The frame buffer streams 24 patterns per frame to the DLPC150.
The following tasks handle specific portions of the system:
USB driver: This task is part of the TivaWare USB driver and handles all USB HID transactions. The data from USB transactions is passed to the command handler task to interpret and respond to a specific set of USB commands described in Appendix G .
Bluetooth Stack: This task handles Bluetooth communication with a mobile application through the implementation of GATT profile in the Bluetopia Stack. Several semaphores control the operation:
– BLEStartSem: Power-up the Bluetooth circuits and initializes the Bluetooth Stack. – BLEEndSem: Powers-down the Bluetooth circuits and gracefully closes the Bluetooth Stack. – BLECmdRecd: Coordinates the reception and processing of GATT profiles and notifies Command
Handler of a new command to be processed. – BLECmdCom: Handles the response to a BLE Client's read and notify requests. – BLENotifySem: Handles the asynchronous notifications to a BLE Client's notification subscriptions.
Command Handler: Interfaces the USB and Bluetooth tasks, interprets commands, and starts the sensor read task and the scanning tasks.
Scan Handler: Controls power to the subsystems necessary to perform a scan (ADS1255, Lamp, DLPC150), manages the pattern streamed to the DLPC150, and reads sensor information during a scan. Two semaphores control the start of the scan (scanSem) and the end of a scan (endscanSem).
TMP Handler: Manages the temperature readings from the TMP006.
HDC Handler: Manages humidity and temperature readings form the HDC1000.
microSD Handler: Controls reading and writing data to the microSD card through a FAT32 file system. A semaphore (sdSem) triggers data access to the microSD card.

5.3.2 Bluetooth Client GATT Profiles

Once the Bluetooth Client establishes a connection with the DLP NIRscan Nano, the supported GATT profile is enumerated. DLP NIRscan Nano uses standard Bluetooth Low Energy services for Device Information (DIS) and Battery (BAS). The rest of the data transfer is through the custom GATT services and characteristics in the following sections. In the following workflow figures, blue denotes a GATT service characteristic, while red denotes a DLP Spectrum library routine.
5.3.2.1 Bluetooth Client GATT General Information Service
Once the GATT General Information Service is enumerated, the Bluetooth Client can prompt DLP NIRscan Nano to read temperature and humidity values. The Bluetooth Client can set a threshold for temperature and humidity and then subscribe to the temperature and humidity threshold notification. The Bluetooth Client can also read a device and error status and then subscribe to the device and error status notifications.
5.3.2.2 Bluetooth Client GATT Date and Time Service
Once the GATT Date and Time Service is enumerated, the Bluetooth Client can write the data and time values to the DLP NIRscan Nano. It is recommended that the Bluetooth Client sets the date and time every time a connection is established, so the scan data has the correct date and time stamp.
5.3.2.3 Bluetooth Client GATT Calibration Service
Once the GATT Calibration Service is enumerated, the Bluetooth Client can prompt DLP NIRscan Nano to download spectrum calibration coefficients, reference calibration coefficients, and reference calibration matrix. These parameters are unique for each DLP NIRscan Nano and are required for spectrum intensity, reflectance, and absorbance plots. These parameters must to be downloaded whenever a new DLP NIRscan Nano is connected to a Bluetooth Client and before a scan is performed. To download these parameters, the Bluetooth Client must follow these steps:
Subscribe to the notification of the characteristic UUID that returns the corresponding coefficient.
Issue a request for the coefficient and wait for the notification to read the corresponding coefficient.
Once a notification is received, then the Bluetooth Client reads the serialized multiple packets from DLP NIRscan Nano.
Figure 5-9 shows the workflow for this service.

USB Communications
The DLP NIRscan Nano communicates using USB 1.1 human interface device (HID) to exchange commands and data with a host processor or PC. The USB commands are variable length data packets that are sent with the least significant byte first. The maximum HID packet length is 64 bytes.
The DLP NIRscan Nano enumerates as a Texas Instruments HID device with vendor ID = 0x0451 and product ID = 0x4200.
USB Transaction Sequence
The USB 1.1 HID protocol has the structure shown in Figure H-1:
Appendix H
DLPU030B–June 2015–Revised July 2015
DLP NIRscan Nano USB Communications
Figure H-1. USB HID Protocol
H.0.0.1 USB Read Transaction Sequence
To issue a read command, the host must perform the following steps:
1. Host sends the Report ID byte, which is set to 0.
2. Host sends the Command ID byte, where:
Bit 6 is set to 0x1 to indicate the host wants a reply from the device.
Bit 7 is set to 0x1 to indicate a read transaction.
3. Host sends the Sequence byte. When a single command is more than 64 bytes, it is sent as multiple USB packets and the sequence byte is used to number the packets so the device can assemble them in the right sequence. Otherwise, this value is irrelevant and generally set to 0.
4. Host sends two bytes with the length of the data packet. This length denotes the number of data bytes in the packet and excludes the number of bytes in steps 1 through 4. It denotes the total number of bytes sent in steps 5 (command bytes) and 6 (data bytes).
5. Host sends two OpCode bytes: OpCode Byte 1 and OpCode Byte 2.
6. Host sends data appropriate to command.
7. After completion of this command, DLP NIRscan Nano responds with a packet that includes: (a) Byte with the command requested by the host (the matching Sequence byte) (b) Length of the data packet (c) Data requested

H.0.0.2 USB Write Transaction Sequence
To issue a write command, the host must perform the following steps:
1. Host sends the Report ID byte, which is set to 0.
2. Host sends the Flags byte, where
Bit 6 is set to 0x1 to indicate the host wants a reply from the device. The device responds with the
NACK bit set if an unknown command was received or there was any error in processing the command due to invalid parameters or other reasons..
Bit 7 is set to 0x1 to indicate a read transaction
3. Host sends the Sequence byte. When a single command is more than 64 bytes, it is sent as multiple USB packets and the sequence byte is used to number the packets so the device can assemble them in the right sequence. In other cases, this value is irrelevant and generally set to 0.
4. Host sends two bytes with the length of the data packet. This length denotes the number of data bytes in the packet and excludes the number of bytes in steps 1 through 4. It denotes the total number of bytes sent in steps 5 (command bytes) and 6 (data bytes).
5. Host sends three OpCode bytes: OpCode Byte 1 and OpCode Byte 2.
6. Host sends data appropriate to command.
7. After completion of this command, DLP NIRscan Nano responds with a packet that includes a byte with the command requested by the host. This occurs only if bit 6 was set in the Flags byte.

DLP NIRscan Nano Bluetooth Communications

I.1 Bluetooth Communications

The DLP NIRscan Nano wirelessly communicates using Bluetooth Low Energy version 4.0 This wireless communication uses two main profiles for discovery and communication with a remote host:
GAP: Generic access profile for basic discovery and establishing connections.
GATT: Generic attribute profile for commands and data transfer.
The DLP NIRscan Nano supports Bluetooth version 4.0 specification. When the Bluetooth sub-system is activated, the DLP NIRscan Nano broadcasts its availability while a smartphone, tablet or PC acts as an observer. Once connected, the DLP NIRscan Nano acts as a server for the GATT profile while the smartphone, tablet, or PC acts as a client.

I.1.1 GATT Supported Services

The DLP NIRscan Nano Bluetooth GATT Profile supports the following services:
Battery Service (BAS) to provide battery charge capacity.
Device Information Service (DIS) to provide manufacturer Name, model number, serial number, hardware revision, spectrum library revision, and Tiva software revision.
GATT General Information Service to provide temperature, humidity, status, hours of use, lamp hours, and battery recharge cycles.
GATT Date and Time Service to synchronize date and time information between smartphone, tablet, or PC to the Tiva's realtime clock.
GATT Calibration Information Service to provide calibration coefficients
GATT Scan Configuration Information Service to provide stored configurations and scan configuration data.
GATT Scan Data Information Service to initiate scan, clear scan data, and return stored scan data.
A GATT service has a universally unique identifier (UUID) used to identify every service. A UUID is a 128­bit value. However, common or frequently used services that are included in the BLE specifications and/or certified by Bluetooth.org are shortened to 16-bit UUID to improve efficiency.
Each service is composed of a set of characteristics. Each characteristic contains a value with properties for how the value is accessed and information on how the value is displayed or represented. The properties are:
R = Read.
W = Write.
WWoR = Write without response. Not used in DLP NIRscan Nano Bluetooth implementation.
S = Signed write. Not used in DLP NIRscan Nano Bluetooth implementation.
N = Notify.
I = Indicate.
WA = Writable auxiliaries. Not used in DLP NIRscan Nano Bluetooth implementation.
B = Broadcast. Not used in DLP NIRscan Nano Bluetooth implementation.
EP = Extended properties. Not used in DLP NIRscan Nano Bluetooth implementation.
