Change beacon Minor Value

[ninoq]

This suggests it should be possible to change the beacon advertising content in response to events such as a GPIO input. I'm using nrf52 DK running the beacon example (SDK 12.2.0) which I've modified slightly so that GPIO inputs trigger a 20 second advertising burst. I want to be able to change the Minor Value so that a mobile app can distinguish which GPIO input triggered the advertisement.

I'd appreciate some guidance on how to approach this and if possible links to example code etc.

Changing m_beacon_info[20] and [21] then calling advertising_init() and advertising_start() seems to work.

I'm using the beacon kit nRF51822 and want to do the same ninoq asked. But i don't understand his solution (maybe it's because i'm new in programing Nordic products). I know that the array entries [20] and [21] are for the MINOR values and I know what advertising_init() and -start() are for, but:

1. I have no m_beacon_info in the example (ble_app_beacon), so where do I have to change the value?
2. can I call the -init() and -start() in the main-loop?
