Hi,

The only video resources are those found on our webinar pages: https://webinars.nordicsemi.com/events?sortOrder=-event_start_date&p=1&tags=Bluetooth+Low+Energy#onDemand.

The Bluetooth: Central and Peripheral HRS sample demonstrates the central role by scanning for a remote device providing Heart Rate Service. When a device is connected as central, the sample starts the service discovery procedure to search for the Heart Rate Service.
The Bluetooth: Throughput sample allows you to set the board into a central (tester) role using a button.
The nRF Desktop application can be configured to work as a Bluetooth Central, handling multiple Bluetooth LE connections simultaneously.
The BLE central samples in the BLE sample list demonstrate the BLE Central role with various applications like BLE Blinky Client Application Example, BLE Heart Rate Collector Example, BLE Multi-link Example, and more.

Kind regards,
Andreas

Would there be any good resources and video tutorials to show the dev kit acting like a central instead of a peripheral?

Hi,

I recommend that you go through https://academy.nordicsemi.com/courses/bluetooth-low-energy-fundamentals/ which is our BLE fundamentals course first. If I remember correct, there should be sections and chapters with code examples showcasing how to read data characteristics from a peripheral.

If this does not quite show you what you want, then I also recommend that you go through the BLE samples in the SDK: https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ncs-latest/page/nrf/samples/bl.html and see if there is any descriptions that matches what you're after

Kind regards,
Andreas
