i want to advertise my one device into coded and into another device i want to do coded distance measurement it is possible ?
Hi
The Nordic Distance toolbox does not support doing ranging in Coded PHY. The ranging itself is done proprietarily outside of BLE specification.

Hi Simon,
Thanks for the clarification.
Just to confirm my understanding — I’m using two nRF52840 devices. One device is advertising using Coded PHY, and the other device is scanning for that advertisement. Once discovered, I intend to perform distance measurement using the dm_request_add()
function from the Distance Measurement API.
Given your statement that the ranging is done "proprietarily outside of the BLE specification," does that mean the actual distance measurement itself does not operate over Coded PHY, even though discovery can happen via Coded advertisements?
In short — is it valid to use Coded PHY for discovery and then use dm_request_add()
for distance measurement, even if the measurement happens over a proprietary PHY under the hood?
Appreciate your clarification!
Br,
romal
and also please tell me how to synchronize both the device at a time like, I need to call dm_request_add() function from both the hand initiator and reflector right ?
