S110 as scanner?

pascal defesche

Hello,

I have some questions regarding S110:

  1. Is it possible for the S110 softdevice to scan for broadcasts?

  2. Is it possible to create a connectable broadcast? I only need to send 2 bytes of data, so can i put 2 bytes of data in an advertisement message?

Regards,

Parents

    Hi Pascal,

    1. S110 is the peripheral stack, therefore it won't support scanning mode. You can use S120 instead, it's the central stack and can scan for advertising packets. Besides, if you want to have a tool to look for all broadcasting packet, tracking traffic on a connection, you can use our sniffer firmware, which can be downloaded from nRF51822 web page (Download tab, Software section).

    2. Could you explain more specific on "connectable broadcast". Do you want to establish connection or you just want to send data by advertising. You can have maximum 31 bytes of advertising data payload.
