Can ble_uart_app be used to send binary hex data instead of ASCII?

Question

I am using ble_uart_app on SDK_11 nRF51-dk s130. 
 I would like to send binary hex data instead of ASCII. Looking at ble_nus_string_send(), it seems that sending binary hex should be ok. Do I still have to modify anything else?

Hi, 
 The conversion to ASCII does not happen inside the ble_nus_string_send(ble_nus_t * p_nus, uint8_t * p_string, uint16_t length) function. It simply treats the p_string variable as a byte array, and does not care what it contains (value wise). So you can send any data into the function. 
 Best regards, 
 Øyvind
