How to connect and pair bluetooth device to NRF52 dongle

Hi,

I have the NRF52 dongle that is set up as the client and is searching using the ble_app_uart_c (Found in examples\ble_central) example and I am trying to connect a bluetooth device to that client and pair them together so that the characteristics of the bluetooth device can be sent to the client.

However, I am not sure how to approach this problem.

Do you think I have to modify the code in the Bluetooth Stack Event in the main.c file?

I have shown the code below.

static void on_ble_evt(ble_evt_t * p_ble_evt)
{
    uint32_t              err_code;
    const ble_gap_evt_t * p_gap_evt = &p_ble_evt->evt.gap_evt;

    switch (p_ble_evt->header.evt_id)
    {
        case BLE_GAP_EVT_ADV_REPORT:
        {
            const ble_gap_evt_adv_report_t * p_adv_report = &p_gap_evt->params.adv_report;

            if (is_uuid_present(&m_nus_uuid, p_adv_report))
            {

                err_code = sd_ble_gap_connect(&p_adv_report->peer_addr,
                                              &m_scan_params,
                                              &m_connection_param);

                if (err_code == NRF_SUCCESS)
                {
                    // scan is automatically stopped by the connect
                    err_code = bsp_indication_set(BSP_INDICATE_IDLE);
                    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
                    printf("Connecting to target %02x%02x%02x%02x%02x%02x\r\n",
                             p_adv_report->peer_addr.addr[0],
                             p_adv_report->peer_addr.addr[1],
                             p_adv_report->peer_addr.addr[2],
                             p_adv_report->peer_addr.addr[3],
                             p_adv_report->peer_addr.addr[4],
                             p_adv_report->peer_addr.addr[5]
                             );
                }
            }
        }break; // BLE_GAP_EVT_ADV_REPORT

        case BLE_GAP_EVT_CONNECTED:
