Sorry for the nube question, but I am really struggling to try and get my IMU data from my MPU9250, to send constant notifications through BLE using the NRF8001. The hardware that I am using is the TinyShield Nordic board from tinycircuits.
I feel like this should be easy, but when I connect BLElite I only get 0 as the notification.
Is there anyone out there who could help me? This is the thing that is currently holding me back, and I would love to get it working soon.
Thanks for all your help, bellow is the code that I am trying to use in order to read and send the data from the IMU through BLE.
