nRF51 IoT Softdevice BLE central mode-'sd_ble_gap_scan_start' error

[anuja]

Hello everyone,

I am trying to use BLE module on nRF51 in central (oberserver) mode using IOT Softdevice. I want to scan for any device around my board. I get error when I use the function 'sd_ble_gap_scan_start', the error code is 0x6. My scan parameters are,

static const ble_gap_scan_params_t m_scan_params = { .active = 1, .selective = 0, .p_whitelist = NULL, .interval = 0x00A0, .window = 0x0050, .timeout = 0x0000 };

Can anyone help me with this? Is there any example code of IOT softdevice used in observer mode?

Thank you, Anuja

The S1xx IoT SoftDevice only supports the GAP peripheral mode, please refer this page on Infocenter. The error code returned by sd_ble_gap_scan_start() is NRF_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED.
