nRF8002 custom advertisement data

[Jose Marcelino]

Hi,

I'd like to add some custom data (25 octets) to the nRF8002 advertisement packets, using the vendor specific data type (FF).

Is this possible in some way or do we have to use the nRF51822?

Thanks

The nRF8002 supports only a very limited set of features, and custom advertisement is not one of them, so unfortunately you'd have to use an nRF51822 (or possibly an nRF8001 plus an MCU) for your application.
