How to advertise with the Eddystone protocol using iot s1xx softdevice?

[denya]

Hello, i am new to BLE, I am using the iot S1xx Softdevice on the nrf51 Dk in order to test ipv6 connection, and now i want to add advertising with the Eddystone protocol. I want to know if is it possible to advertise with the Eddystone protocol using the iot s1xx softdevice ?

Thank you

It is possible to do it, i have tested and all things work :)

Hi,

Could you tell me, which enviornment you are using for development on nRF51 and IoT SDK?

I am using Visual GDB. I have been successful in compiling CoAP client protocol. The example includes advertizing some data continuously, but I can't see the device listed in my mobile phone's bluetooth scanning. Do you have any idea about this?

Thanks, Anuja

Hi, I used the keil enviorement, it works successfully. I do not know the Visual GDB, but after compiling the exemple you should program the nRF51 DK, I means flashing it with the exemple. In the keil enviorement it is easy to do this. I hope that i respone your question. Denya

Hi Denya,

Thank you for response. Yes, I did flash the code on nRF51. But I can't see any advertizing from BLE. I have not modified the example code. Can you tell me how did you test the CoAP protocol example code?

Hi, sorry for the delay, did you use the iot softdevice? For my case, i use the iot softdevice, i just flashed it on the nRF51DK after i did flash the code exemple and all work greatly. Denya
