GShock GAB-2100 BLE protocol

Overview

Casio bluetooth watches protocol has not been published by the constructor. The following description comes from experiments on the watch and analysis of the code of open source softwares dedicated to communicate with these watches :

Syntax and examples come from gatttool.

Commands

Read (char-read-hnd)

  • 0x4 : watch name
  • 0x6 : device type
  • 0x9 : TX Power level

Write command (char-write-cmd)

0xc

  • 10 : Get button pressed (and other informations ?)
  • 22 : Get app info
  • 1D00 : Get time zones and DST state of watch
  • 1e00 : Get local time zone parameters
  • 1e01 : Get WT time zone parameters
  • 1f00 : Get local time zone name
  • 1f01 : Get WT time zone name

Write request (char-write-req)

0xe

  • 1D00... : Set time zones and DST state of watch
  • 1e00... : Set local time zone parameters
  • 1e01... : Set WT time zone parameters
  • 1f00... : Set local time zone name
  • 1f01... : Set WT time zone name

0xf

  • 100 : ?

Data packets

0 : 1d

1 : local TZ index

2 : WT TZ index

3 : local TZ DST :

  • 02 : No DST
  • 03 : DST

4 : WT TZ DST

5-6 : 2 bytes integer (little-endian) : local City numeric identifier = b06 × 256 + b05

7-8 : WT city numeric identifier

1E : Time zone parameters

0  1  2  3  4  5  6 
1e 01 52 00 16 04 00

0 : 1e

1 : TZ index :

  • 00 : local
  • 01 : WT

2-3 : city numeric identifier

4 : signed byte : time difference in quarter of an hour (divide by 4 to get it in hour)

5 : DST offset in quarter of hour : 00 for UTC and 04 for other TZ

6 : DST rules ? :

  • 00 : UTC and cities without DST
  • 01 : USA cities
  • 02 : European cities (LON, PAR, ATH)
  • 04 : Australia
  • 05 : New Zealand (Wellington)
  • 12 : Lord Howe Island
  • 17 : Chatam Islands
  • 2b : Teheran

Examples with gatttool

Installation

gatttool is part of the bluez package. On Debian and derivatives, it could be installed with :

sudo apt install bluez

gatttool usage

Gatttool syntax with examples is described here.

Beware of handle and data values, gatttool documentation is confusing. Write command syntax in interactive mode is :

char-write-cmd <handle> <data>

  • Handle value should be writen in hexadecimal base with 0x prefix.
  • Data value should be writen in hexadecimal base without 0x prefix.

Example : char-write-cmd 0xc 1d00

In non interactive mode, the syntax is :

gatttool -b <address> --char-write-req -a <handle> -n <data> --listen

Here handle value can be written either in hexadecimal with prefix or decimal, but data value should be in hexadecimal base without prefix.

Examples

$ gatttool -b D3:60:4F:9A:33:29 -I -t random
[D3:60:4F:9A:33:29]      connect
