Multiple adv. sets are not supported in the nRF5 SDK, unfortunately. You will get a NO_MEM error if you try to allocate additional adv. handles.

Is this possible with 52840 (S140) and the nRF5-SDK? Can I just call sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure with pointer to BLE_GAP_ADV_SET_HANDLE_NOT_SET as handle multiple times to create multiple advertizing sets?

I'm glad to hear that it worked. Thanks for the update.

All right.
Now it works fine.
While creating an advertiser, there was an excessive payload length that broke the name.
Many thanks.

Ok, many thanks.

I tried this and it partly works.

There's still something strange I need to check out. As soon as it's clear to me I'll get back to you.

Thank you

Hello,

Yes, you can specify different device names for each set. To do that, ensure you do not have the BT_LE_ADV_OPT_USE_NAME flag set in your advertising parameters. Then, use BT_DATA_BYTES(BT_DATA_NAME_COMPLETE, "<device name>") to add the name to your bt_data structs.

Best regards,

Vidar

Edit: The device name length must also be specified: BT_DATA_BYTES(BT_DATA_NAME_COMPLETE, "<device name>", <length>)
