Health Thermometer Profile - Getting Started Guide
USER GUIDE
Introduction
The Health Thermometer Profile is used to enable a data collection device to obtain data from a
thermometer sensor that exposes the Health Thermometer Service.
The profile defines two roles:
Thermometer:
The Thermometer is the device that measures the temperature.
Collector:
The Collector is the device that receives the temperature measurement and other data from a
thermometer.
Features
Device Discovery and Disconnection
Pairing/Bonding
RSSI Sampling
Health Thermometer Service
Health Thermometer Profile iOS/Android Application

1 Purpose
This getting started guide describes the setup of an Atmel®ATSAMB11 Xplained board and bringing up
an example profile supplied as part of BluSDK SMART release. The Bluetooth®Health Thermometer
Profile is an example profile application that is embedded as part of the software release package. The
device advertises itself as a Health Thermometer. The ATSAMB11 Xplained board includes an on-board
temperature sensor (accessible from the host MCU) for the purpose of sensing the ambient temperature.
2 Services and Characteristics
The thermometer implements the one and only one Health Thermometer Service in addition to the Device
Information Service to display the information about the thermometer device.
The current thermometer profile implementation implements the following characteristics:
Temperature Measurement
Intermediate Temperature
Measurement Interval
3 Demo Setup
4 Hardware Setup
Connect the ATSAMB11 board to the host PC using a Micro-USB cable.

5 Temperature Measurement Location
Onboard the ATSAMB11, the user button is configured to change the temperature measurement location
in the human body.
The Health Thermometer profile specifies the following locations at which temperature measurements can
be read:
Body (general)
Ear (usually ear lobe)
Finger
Gastro-intestinal Tract
Mouth
Rectum
Toe
Tympanum (ear drum)
In order to simulate the change of temperature measurement location from the Thermometer Sensor
device, the user button is preprogrammed; Every time the user button is pressed, the temperature location
will be changed as per the above list.
This can clearly be observed on a Health Thermometer Collector (Mobile Application).
6 Temperature Type
One more parameter that needs to be simulated is the temperature measurement type which contains two
units of measurement; Centigrade and Fahrenheit.
To simulate this change on the peripheral side, as there is only one user button available on board which
had already been used for changing the temperature location, the trigger that is used for this is to run
through all the locations once. Then the application shall toggle the temperature type.

7 Software Setup
7.1 Installation Steps
1. Install the latest Atmel Studio [Atmel Studio 7.0 (build 629 or later) web installer
(recommended)]
http://www.atmel.com/tools/ATMELSTUDIO.aspx.
2. Install the latest Atmel Software Framework.
This package will install the following examples within the Atmel Studio environment:
Health Thermometer Application for ATSAMB11
7.2 Build Procedure
The following procedure is explained for ATSAMB11 application example.
1. Select New Example Project.
Figure 7-1. Creating a New Example Project
2. Select “SAMB11” in device family, enter “HTP” in the search window, and expand Atmel Corp
Projects. The location and the name of the project can be selected in the respective fields. Click
OK.
Figure 7-2. Selecting Scan Parameter Service Application from Example Projects
3. Accept the license Agreement. The studio will generate the Health Thermometer Profile project for
ATSAMB11.
4. Build the solution.

5. Download the application via the USB to the ATSAMB11 board.
Figure 7-4. Flashing the Application on Atmel MCU
6. Inside the device programming the user has to select the correct configuration for the device and
finally program the device by using the program button.
Figure 7-5. Flash Programming
7. Once the application is flashed, it is ready to be simulated as Health Thermometer Device.

8 Console Logging
For the purpose of debugging, a logging interface has been implemented in the Health Thermometer
Application.
The logging interface utilizes the same EDBG port that connects to ATSAMB11. A serial port monitor
application (for example TeraTerm) shall be opened and attached to the EDBG COM port.
9 Running the Demo
1. Power on the ATSAMB11 by connecting the USB cable.
2. Open the console using TeraTerm or any serial port monitor application and connect to the
corresponding COM port of “EDBG”. Serial port settings: Baudrate 115200, None Parity, one Stop
bit, one Start bit, no Hardware Handshake.
3. Press the Reset button on the ATSAMB11 board.
4. The board should be in advertising mode. Ensure that the console log looks as shown below.

App_entry ====================
AT_BLE_HTPT_CREATE_DB_CFM / 0
Please fine ATMEL-B11-HTP device
5. Start the Thermometer application on the iPhone/Android.
Figure 9-2. iOS(left)/Android(right) Thermometer Profile App Launch Screen
6. Enable the scan option through the sliding switch. The application is implemented in such a way
that it filters out all the other UUID’s and connects to only those peripherals that advertise with
Health Thermometer UUID (0x1809).
