1. Do I have to use PI with this device?
      it can't work as standalone ?
      setup it once , connect it to power and "forget" about it?

    2. I have try 4 time to understand how to work with this site
      https://www.espruino.com/Web%20Bluetooth­
      and also this
      http://www.espruino.com/Quick+Start+BLE
      this is the most ununderstable explain\exmaple I have ever read .
      and I read a lot of tech .
      can't find a simple guide of how to upload using a serial connection,
      I don't have bluetooth on my computer - so I can't upload create a project on it?

    maybe there is a very simple even "dumb" guide ?

    Thanks,


    maybe I didn't understand the using of the BLE
    do I have to have an internet connection for it to work?
    if not - why do I need to use pi?
    or the pi is just for manage the data and get all kind of stat about people how see my BLE?

    Thanks ,

    Good Morning David @David1234321,

    'I can see it on the "ESPRUINO WEB IDE"'
    'this is the most ununderstable explain\exmaple I have ever read . and I read a lot of tech'

    Thank you for your feedback. Is it possible there is a bit of mis-communication here as we sense a bit of frustration on that end? The post title indicated 'First time user' and the desired project goal is quite a bit narly!

    We made the assumption that many skills had previously been acquired, thus only a bit on getting started with Espruino was all that was needed. I provided the links in post #3 in order to perform the ideas that were presented using just a browser to load and interact with, rather than connecting and coding the PI hardware solution, which could be time consuming.



    We need a bit a bit more about your PC, tools and knowledge, so please respond with those items as listed here:

    The first post pinned at the top of the Forums category:

    http://forum.espruino.com/microcosms/130­/
    which links to:
    http://forum.espruino.com/conversations/­335009/#comment14774556

    containing loads of recommended reference links along with detail that would assist us in getting a user up and running quickly.

    Q: Are we working with the MDBT42Q breakout board, or a project connected to the module itself?



    But maybe that was a bit overkill, and some videos will trigger some more appropriate questions:

    this is five years old and uses a USB connection but is a good introduction
    This video gives a basic overview of the steps:

    This video demos writing code that is sent over BLE:
