 # This is a GUI Example showing the use of the API on Streaming/Configuring/Connecting to a Shimmer3 device 
-* Both Bluetooth Classic and BLE is supported
+* Both Bluetooth Classic and BLE (only Shimmer3R) is supported
 * For Bluetooth Classic please pair the device first and use the com port to connect
-* For BLE, the device does not require pairing, use the mac address to connect to the device
+* For BLE, the device does not require pairing, use the mac address to connect to the device, the mac address should be in the form ffffffffffff
