Ensure that the following Bluetooth apps are installed on your mobile phone. These apps will show you the raw data sent by Ameba and allow you to interact with the data.

LightBlue is an alternative application that can also be used, but has less features:
Open the example, “Files” -> “Examples” -> “AmebaBLE” -> “BLEBeacon”
Upload the code and press the reset button on Ameba once the upload is finished.
On your mobile phone, open the Bluetooth app and scan for the beacon signal broadcast by Ameba.
If you happen to be in an environment with multiple BLE beacons, you can tap the entries to expand them, and verify that the beacon data is identical to the data in the sketch.
