Is there a provision where the unit at the factory can be loaded with a crude program that would come up as a  BLE device searching for a host but without full capability.  On first connection, the host quickly determines whether it has current firmware in non-volatile storage.  If it doesn’t, the host downloads it.  This minimizes what has to be hard-programmed and maximizes operating convenience.

You would need to write a custom application to accomplish what you've described.

However, once written, our OTA update capability would be useful to transfer the program wirelessly to the device.

Here's a link to the document that was just released which describes this capability in detail:
