2.4.3.5 OTA Control Point

When written by a client, the OTA Control Point characteristic is an 8-bit enumerated value (known as the opcode) followed by zero or more parameter octets. The opcode is used by the server to determine which OTA Control operation is being initiated by the client. A notification of the OTA Control Point is used to provide a response to a client-initiated the OTA Control Point operation.

The structure of the OTA Control Point characteristic is defined in Table 3.6.
