Transmit number via ble

[Stas]

Hello! I have uint32_t adc_value (from external ADC converter) And try to send it value through ble. My code:

main.c: ....

 for (;;)
    {
	Weighing();
        power_manage();    			 
			if(adc_value)    				
			{
				SEGGER_RTT_printf(0, "%d\n", adc_value);
				ble_adc_send(&m_nus, &adc_value);
			}
			nrf_delay_ms(100);
    }

here's send value function from ble_nus.c:

uint32_t ble_adc_send(ble_nus_t * p_nus, uint32_t *adc_value)
{
    ble_gatts_hvx_params_t hvx_params;

    VERIFY_PARAM_NOT_NULL(p_nus);

    if ((p_nus->conn_handle == BLE_CONN_HANDLE_INVALID) || (!p_nus->is_notification_enabled))
    {
        return NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE;
    }
		uint16_t length = 10;
    if (length > BLE_NUS_MAX_DATA_LEN)
    {
        return NRF_ERROR_INVALID_PARAM;
    }
		
    memset(&hvx_params, 0, sizeof(hvx_params));

    hvx_params.handle = p_nus->rx_handles.value_handle;
    hvx_params.p_data = (uint8_t*) adc_value;
    hvx_params.p_len  = &length;
    hvx_params.type   = BLE_GATT_HVX_NOTIFICATION;

    return sd_ble_gatts_hvx(p_nus->conn_handle, &hvx_params);
}

1. Segger RTT terminal shows correct values but in mobile phone I getting garbage data. Notification works properly by the way.

2. What is the easiest way to convert int to string. Before working with 8-bit MC I used ultoa/utoa function from the lib with avg gcc compiler, here it's not working. But vice versa converting string to int (itoa) works good

Thanks

Hello, the length of an uint32_t is 4 not 10. So you should use sizeof(uint32_t) to initialize the "length" variable. I think you want to convert the uint32_t ADC value on the receiver side. If you correct the length, your conversion with ultoa() should also work.

Thanks for your example. Indeed I've only started to learn android programming (on Java by the way). Now I just make a simple app in probable the highest level way of android programming - ble-test.appinventor.mit.edu . In that app I can get string value via ble and it work good with get/send string value (the same like in nrf connect app) Here's my code :) ybex.com/.../w1vcqz9gpumalqb10hqxroupa32vuhtmtew89hfv.html
