Basic Concept Introduction
Broadcast mode
Broadcast mode is the new feature in the Bluetooth LE. The Broadcaster device broadcasts packets to every
device around it. The Bluetooth LE Observer device can receive the information without connection.
Broadcast
mode is one-way data communication.
Connection mode
In the connection mode, the Slave only can connect to a Master, but the Master can connect to three Slaves. The
Slave will not send broadcast packet after link has been established. The Master and Slave could send data after a
link has been established.
