XBee API BLE Service

You can configure the XBee through the BLE interface using API frame requests and responses. The API frame format through Bluetooth is equivalent to setting AP=1 and transmitting the frames over the UART or SPI interface. API frames can be executed over Bluetooth regardless of the AP setting.

The BLE interface allows these frames:

• BLE Unlock API - 0x2C
• BLE Unlock Response - 0xAC
• AT Command - 0x08
• User Data Relay - 0x2D

This API reference assumes that you are familiar with Bluetooth and GATT services. The specifications for Bluetooth are an open standard and can be found at the following links:

• Bluetooth Core Specifications: https://www.bluetooth.com/specifications/bluetooth-core-specification
• Bluetooth GATT: https://www.bluetooth.com/specifications/gatt/generic-attributes-overview

The XBee API GATT Service contains two characteristics: the API Request characteristic and the API Response characteristic. The UUIDs for the service and its characteristics are listed in the table below.

Characteristic	UUID
