Generate Major or Minor dynamically every N seconds

Greetings,
I tried searching for this before positing, but in case I missed - my apologies.

The questions is simple, will I be able to program an estimote to change the ID (minor or major) every N seconds?

Hi Emin,

Yes, that is possible with our current SDK: https://github.com/Estimote

Cheers.

Thanks, Wojtek. Can you clarify one more thing- I know that right now the security part is not yet implemented, does this mean that "code" that will generate these values be visible to anyone or will it be somehow compiled ?

I had a look at your SDK, seems like you meant a different thing. So, I am clarifying again: I want to have an Estimote change its major and minor dynamically completely on its own, without a need to have any apps running on iOS or Android. So, these values should change by the means of Estimote's firmware only.

Hi Emin,

Ah, okay, thanks for claryfying and sorry for the confusion! In that case it's not possible yet - beacons cannot change the values on their own. However, we're working on implementing more security features in the coming weeks - stay tuned!

Cheers.
