Bluetooth® Low Energy AT Commands

[中文]

Introduction

Currently, AT firmware for ESP32-C3 supports Bluetooth® Core Specification Version 5.0.

Important

The default AT firmware supports all the AT commands mentioned on this page. If you need to modify the commands supported by ESP32-C3 by default, please compile the ESP-AT project by following the steps in Compile ESP-AT Project Locally documentation. In the project configuration during the fifth step, make the following selections (Each item below is independent. Choose it according to your needs):

  • Disable BluFi commands: Component config -> AT -> AT blufi command support

  • Disable Bluetooth LE commands: Component config -> AT -> AT ble command support

  • Disable Bluetooth LE HID commands: Component config -> AT -> AT ble hid command support

AT+BLEINIT: Bluetooth LE Initialization

Query Command

Function:

Check the initialization status of Bluetooth LE.

Command:

AT+BLEINIT?

Response:

If Bluetooth LE is initialized, AT will return:

+BLEINIT:<role>
OK

If Bluetooth LE is not initialized, AT will return:

+BLEINIT:0
OK

Set Command

Function:

Initialize the role of Bluetooth LE.

Command:

AT+BLEINIT=<init>

Response:

OK

Parameter

  • <init>:

  • 0: deinit Bluetooth LE

  • 1: client role

  • 2: server role

Notes

  • To achieve better performance, it is recommended to disable SoftAP by sending the AT+CWMODE=0/1 command before using Bluetooth LE function. For more details, please refer to the RF Coexistence documentation.

  • Before using other Bluetooth LE AT commands, you should run this command first to trigger the initialization process.

  • After the initialization, the Bluetooth LE role cannot be changed unless you run AT+RST to restart the system first and then re-initialize the Bluetooth LE role.

  • Before you deinitialize the Bluetooth stack, it is recommended to stop broadcasting, stop scanning, and disconnect all existing connections.

  • If Bluetooth LE is initialized, AT+CIPMODE cannot be set to 1.

Example

AT+BLEINIT=1
