how is Gzp pair (nRF52 with nRF24) distance

[Chaw]

Hi, Nordic nRF52 as GZP Device, nRF24 as GZP Host

I know if nRF52 is range of nRF24, the pair will be worked.

I want to know what is the distance.

And if I use unencrypt, I only want to pair two nRF52, how to disable 3rd nRF52 Device?

Gazell can not operate pair, right?

Hi

There is a proximity pairing feature in GZP whereby a pairing request will only be accepted if the signal strength is above a certain value. In the nRF24 hosts this is implemented using the Received Power Detect (RPD) bit, which kicks in when an incoming signal is stronger than -64dBm. Exactly what range this equals is hard to predict, and can change depending on environmental factors, the hardware used and so forth, but I would expect the pairing range to be less than 1m.

If you close the pairing pipe after two devices are connected you should be able to limit the host to only support those two.

I don't understand what you mean with "Gazell can not operate pair". Could you elaborate?

Best regards
Torbjørn

Hi, if two nRF52 connected to nRF24 via GZP, how can I know which pipe every nRF52 should use to send data?

I see nrf_gzll_add_packet_to_tx_fifo or nrf_gzll_ok_to_add_packet_to_tx_fifo, they both need to write one pipe, they should not use same pipe, right? if yes, how can I know whichi pipe should be used on both nRF52?
