nrf51-ble-driver_win_0.5.0 scanning with white list does not work

[gorochan]

I'm creating a PC application using the ble windows driver by nordic, i cannot implement white list. I ported my code on the firmware & it works. Is this a limitation of the driver or the firmware connectivity_115k_with_s130_1.0.0.hex? Below is my code:

   ble_gap_scan_params_t m_scanparam_sel;
   ble_gap_whitelist_t mywhitelist;
   ble_gap_addr_t      *p_whitelist_addr[1];
   //address LSB first
   ble_gap_addr_t whitelist_addr = {BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM_STATIC,    {0x25,0xD7,0x90,0x11,0x7A,0xC8}};

   
   memset(&m_scanparam_sel,0,sizeof(m_scanparam_sel));
   p_whitelist_addr[0] = &whitelist_addr;

   mywhitelist.irk_count =    0;
   mywhitelist.pp_irks = NULL;
   mywhitelist.pp_addrs = p_whitelist_addr;
   mywhitelist.addr_count = 1;


   //set scanning parameter
   m_scanparam_sel.active = 1;
   m_scanparam_sel.selective =1;
   m_scanparam_sel.p_whitelist = &mywhitelist; 
   m_scanparam_sel.interval= SCAN_INTERVAL;
   m_scanparam_sel.window = SCAN_WINDOW;
   m_scanparam_sel.timeout= 0 ;      

   scan_start(m_scanparam_sel);

Hi,

Thank you for letting us know, it is very much appreciated.

This is a part of pc-ble-driver that still needs examples and testing. I will put in a request to the developers so that hopefully this will both be fixed (if indeed broken) and get an example soon.

Regards, Terje

It may be worth trying the latest version of pc-ble-driver, which uses the s130 (with modifications) SoftDevice, as the port to a new SoftDevice and serialization application may have changed some things up. No guarantees, though. I may look furhter into this if I get the time.
