Ble central device controlled by external MCU?

Jos Bijma

Hi,

In my application I need to control a nrf51822 central device by an external MCU. Does Nordic provide solutions to control a nrf51822 Cental device (with S120 softdevice) by an external MCU? I noticed examples for S110 serialization, is something also available for the S120? Or are there good alternative ways to control a central device by an external MCU?

    There are currently no direct examples for how to serialize the S120 API, but it shouldn't be very difficult to modify the existing S110 serialization to work for the S120 instead. This is also something that will most likely be included in future SDK releases, although I can't promise anything with regard to schedule at this time.

    You could also consider to build your own, application specific serialization API, which may reduce the amount of serial traffic, and hence current consumption. This is also something that could be built on what's currently part of the SDK, or you can choose to roll your own from scratch.
