2 UARTs on 51422

[leehong]

Hi,

I have a hardware (wired) UART transmitting data to the nRF51 at intervals. I'm currently trying to implement UART-BLE that runs could concurrently with the wired UART.

How should I go about doing that (uart event handler and uart initialization)?

Hi

I suspect the BLE UART example in the nRF5 SDK does just what you are asking for. Otherwise let me know. It implements communication over the hardware UART and sends the data to a peer device over BLE using the NUS (Nordic UART Service).

Hi Stefan,

I'm looking to receive data from 2 ends independently:

1. From hardware UART (receiving data from another chip)
2. From BLE-UART (receiving data from mobile app)

Also, due to my hardware limitation, I'm only able to use the same UART pin for both wired uart and ble-uart. I don't think it is covered in SDK's BLE UART.
