Simulate iBeacon with macOS

Question

I have the latest Mac Mini 2012.

I want to use it as a beacon and tried to use this project for this: https://github.com/timd/MactsAsBeacon

I configured the correct UUID, major and minor, but my application does not recognize it.

This Mac supports Bluetooth 4.0, but it did not work like a beacon.
