cellular phone example for nRF52832

[JS]

Sorry for asking as not familiar with BT terminology and un-sure which fold means what, grateful pointer to example (in SDK or similar) that can run on the dev kit. That is, link with cell phone and send a few bytes for command/control both way.

What is ble_central_and_peripheral and pca10040? Is cell phone central? Is s132 the current softdevice?

Also, same example for nRF51.

Many thanks

All of the examples in the SDK can run on the dev kit and most of them use BTLE and will connect with another device. Many of them are designed to work with nordic's iOS or Android apps (nrfToolbox) to send and receive data. Some of them work with two dev kits and send and receive data between them, look at the examples documentation which gives you the setup for each and every example and you'll see how it works quite quickly. The phone is often the central, but it can be the peripheral, and the dev kit can be the central, or the peripheral, or both at the same time.

pca10040 is the designation of the latest nRF52 devkit board, the examples all have their own build directory for each board because each one has different buttons/leds and pins used for comms. However those differences are minor and the basic code is common to all.

ble_central_and_peripheral means that particular example runs the dev board in both central and peripheral mode.

s132 is the softdevice for nRF52 for BTLE, there are others for ANT and for ANT+BTLE, and the older nRF51 has other softdevices which were peripheral-only or central-only; you just want to concentrate on the S132.
