About micro:bit UART Terminal Android App

This app communicates between Android and a micro:bit device. You can transmit and receive text in 'notification' or 'indication' mode. The UART communication also has to be implemented at the micro:bit device (Block, Javascript, MBED).

Options:
- Indication: Default micro:bit mode (otherwise notification mode)
- LF: Linefeed added
- CR: Carriage return added

Requirements:
- Min. Android 5
- Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
- Paired devices
- micro:bit programm (developed by yourself)

V 2.1: Copy to Clipboard (Option Menu)
V 2.2: Clear List (Option Menu), No Log Option
V 2.5: Hex Mode

MBED example:

#include "MicroBit.h"
#include "MicroBitUARTService.h"
#include "BMP180.h"

MicroBit uBit;
MicroBitUARTService *uart;
BMP180 bmp180(P0_30, P0_0);
char buffer[80];
float pressure,temperature;

int connected = 0;

void onConnected(MicroBitEvent e)
{
uBit.display.scroll("C");
connected = 1;
}

void onDisconnected(MicroBitEvent e)
{
uBit.display.scroll("D");
connected = 0;
}


void onButtonA(MicroBitEvent e)
{
uBit.display.scroll(buffer);
}

void onButtonB(MicroBitEvent e)
{
uBit.display.scroll("SK");
}

/*
IMPORTANT !!!
Oherwise you will run out of memory !

Recommend disabling the DFU and Event services in MicroBitConfig.h since they are not needed here:
microbit->microbit-dal->inc->core->MicroBitConfig.h

#define MICROBIT_BLE_DFU_SERVICE 0
#define MICROBIT_BLE_EVENT_SERVICE 0
#define MICROBIT_SD_GATT_TABLE_SIZE 0x500
*/

if (bmp180.ReadData(&temperature,&pressure))
sprintf(buffer, "%.2f C %4.0f hPa", temperature, pressure);
