Abstract: The invention relates to a technique for access by a master device (22) to a value. The invention relates to a technique for access by a master device (22) to a value taken by a characteristic managed by a peripheral device (23). A first relay device (21) situated in a zone of radio coverage of the master device receives a command for simulation of the peripheral device, this peripheral device being situated in a zone of radio coverage to a second relay device (24). The first relay device then establishes a radio connection with the master device, by simulating the presence of the peripheral device in the zone of radio coverage of the master device. The first relay device receives from the master device a request to read a value taken by a characteristic managed by the peripheral device, transmits the request and receives in return the value from the second relay device, said second relay device having obtained it by interrogating the peripheral device. It can then dispatch it to the master device.
