4 Find Me Target
The Find Me profile defines the behavior when a button is pressed on a device to cause an immediate
alert on a peer device. This can be used to allow users to find devices that have been misplaced.
Find Me Target Application which is the GATT server will hold the characteristics and wait for the Find Me
locaters alerts and based on the alerts level it will do the appropriate task.
Alert Level Characteristic
When the Find Me Locator device wishes to cause an alert on the Find Me Target device, it shall write the
specific Alert Level in the Alert Level characteristic.

6 Console Logging
For the purpose of debugging, a logging interface has been implemented in the Find Me Application.
The logging interface utilizes the same EDBG port that connects to the supported platform. A serial port
monitor application (for example TeraTerm) shall be opened and attached to the corresponding COM port
enumerated on the PC by the device. The baud rate should be set to 115200.
7 Running the Demo
1. Power on the SAM L21 + ATBTLC1000 setup by connecting the USB cable as indicated in Figure
3-1.
2. Open a console window using TeraTerm or any equivalent serial port monitor application and
connect to the corresponding COM port enumerated on the PC. (Settings: Baud rate 115200, None
Parity, one Stop bit, one Start bit, no Hardware Handshake.)
3. Press the Reset button on the SAM L21 or supported platform board.
4. The device is now in advertising mode.
Figure 7-1. Console Display for Device in Advertisement Mode
5. On a BLE compatible Android phone or an iPhone®, enable Bluetooth in the Settings page. Start the
Atmel Smart Connect App and scan for devices. ATMEL-FMP will be appear amongst the devices
scanned. Click on ATMEL-FMP to connect to the SAM L21 or supported platform + ATBTLC1000
device.
