 - `value` This is the actual value of the characteristic. This will be a string of bytes unless a `type` value is set.
 - `read` This is a function that will be invoked to read the value (and so does not need the `value` entry). It should return a string of bytes (unless `type` is set).
 - `write` This is a function that will be invoked to write the value (and so does not need the `value` entry). It is given a string of bytes (unless `type` is set)
-- `notify` If this attribute is present with the value `true` then notifications are supported on this characteristic.
+- `notify` If this attribute is present then notifications are supported on this characteristic. The value of the `notify` attribute is updated to be an integer which is the value to be passed into `ble.notify()`
 
 If the `value` key is present, then the characteristic is read/write. However, if one or `read` or `write` is set to `true`, then it restricts access to that mode.
