Methods

readValue()

Description
Read the descriptor value from either remote device (client role) or the local device (server role). In client mode, the cached value property is also updated after retrieving the value from the remote GATT server.
Return
A Promise to indicate whether the operation is resolved or rejected. The Promise is resolved along with the value retrieved from the remote device or local device.

writeValue(ArrayBuffer value)

Description
Write the descriptor value to the GATT server. If the local device is the GATT client, the value will be written to the remote GATT server. On the other hand, if the local device is the GATT server, the value will be written to value.
Parameter
value
Desired value to be written to the GATT server.
Return
A Promise to indicate whether the operation is resolved or rejected. The Promise is resolved along with the descriptor value after this write operation.
