How to limit the advertising time?

[LuckyLukas]

Hi

I am trying to start an advertise. If I use the “BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAG_BR_EDR_NOT_SUPPORTED” flag all work’s pretty fine, but whenever I change the flag to “BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_LIMITED_DISC_MODE” I receive the error code 7, after using the function ad_ble_gap_adv_start(&m_adv_params). In this thread I read about the limited advertising time (180 seconds). How can I change the advertising time? I didn’t found it.

Best regards

If you want to reduce the advertising timeout, you need to reduce the APP_ADV_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS in main.c

i am not sure, but isnt APP_ADV_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS only for sdk 11? i use sdk 12.

ohh.... i am so sorry... i got it. i can change the timeout time in my struct. after i changed the timeout from 0 (timeout disabled) to 30 (in seconds), i dont get any error massages.
