How to find UUID?

Post by wjs0303 »

I'm using adafruit nrf52840 express and I want to get data from board to my computer by BLE connection. When I ask that to chatgpt, it says I need device address, service uuid and characteristic uuid. I can find service uuid, but I don't know how I can find other two

You don't really need to mess with UUID's in most cases. If you just want to pair your nRF52840 with a computer to transfer data over the UART there is a guide for that.

According to websitelegitchecker, By default UUID are used in the boot loader and /etc/fstab files for the boot device. The UUID is a property of the file system and can change if you reformat the drive. Other alternatives to using UUIDs of device names would be to identify devices by ID or label.
