Examples of BLE5 chaining advertising data packets

[smcho]

In this Nordic page, BLE 5 has a new feature of advertising extensions: www.nordicsemi.com/.../Bluetooth-5. Is there any example or document how to program this chaining of advertising data packets?

I'm afraid this is not supported by Nordic stacks (Soft Devices) yet, or is it?

Hi PB,

Yes, there is a mention of adv extension in S140 V5.0.0-3.alpha, but it's not supported yet. Quote from release notes:

A new configuration option, BLE_GAP_CFG_ADV, has been added to the sd_ble_cfg_set(). This option can be used to configure advertising sets. Currently this option is not used as this alpha release only supports one advertising set with 31 bytes of advertising or scan response data.

Adv extensions will also be supported by a version of S132, in a release coming later this year.
