How to get nRF52832 to work in Central Mode?

[bavanmendon]

So, I've been trying to figure out how to get nRF52832 to run in Central Mode. I've looked up a bunch of stuff online but wasn't able to find what I'm looking for.

This is one of the links I found: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.s132.api.v7.2.0%2Fgroup___b_l_e___g_a_p___r_o_l_e_s.html

However, I'm not really sure which header file needs to be included. From what I understood, I think the header file from the SDK that needs to be included is "ble_gap.h". But there are a few functions in "Gap.h" that seem like they should work as well.

What would be the best way to go about writing code to get the nRF52832 to work in Central Mode?

Hello,

Please take a look at our Beginners course on BLE, which will give you more ideas on this. You can also take a look at our samples (inside nrf connect sdk), which run on central roles. I recommend you go through the central_uart sample for a better understanding.

Thank you, these were really helpful!

I had another query though. What would be the libraries used if I want to do the same using MbedOS?

I recommend you raise this query in the MbedOS forum, as we don't deal with MbedOS.
