Missing BLEHID AT commands for ESP32-C6

Post by monty »

Hi! I was not able to find the Discord server and found the new forum :D

I am very new to ESP AT commands but was able to somehow have Challenger RP2040 WIFI/BLE to act as a Bluetooth keyboard using BLEHID AT commands. I go the new RP2350 board to upgrade existing setup and realized that ESP32-C6 is missing the BLEHID commands.... :|

Is this a subset of commands that will not be supported on C6? Looks like C3 had it from first release.

Code: Select all

    :esp32 or esp32c3 : - :ref:`AT+BLEHIDINIT <cmd-BLEHIDINIT>`: Bluetooth LE Human Interface Device (HID) profile initialization.
    :esp32 or esp32c3 : - :ref:`AT+BLEHIDKB <cmd-BLEHIDKB>`: Send Bluetooth LE HID keyboard information.
    :esp32 or esp32c3 : - :ref:`AT+BLEHIDMUS <cmd-BLEHIDMUS>`: Send Bluetooth LE HID mouse information.
    :esp32 or esp32c3 : - :ref:`AT+BLEHIDCONSUMER <cmd-BLEHIDC>`: Send Bluetooth LE HID consumer information.

Hi Monty,

Great to see that you found your way here :)

Now, by default, when building the ESP-AT stack, these commands are disabled. This is something that has changed since the release of the ESP32-C3 stack. Not sure why. We should be able to rebuild it to these commands enabled again. I'll try to make the time for that next week.

Oh wow, that is good news!

Do you recommend building BLE HID features from from scratch? (other BLE AT commands)
Not sure if I am over reading the situation but its looking like a move to deprecation :o

Oooh, I have no idea at all sorry to say. At the moment it is just not configured per default and I do not think it is going away anytime soon but we need to make sure it is enabled when building the image.
