nrf52 no timeout advertising

[gaminn]

Hi, I want nrf52 to advertise infinitely without restarting it. What value should I set ble_adv_fast_timeout?

Hi! Try to set timeout to 0 like this:

#define APP_ADV_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS 0

and change advdata flag from "BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_LIMITED_DISC_MODE" to

static void advertising_init(void){
    ...
    advdata.flags = BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_GENERAL_DISC_MODE;
    ...
    options.ble_adv_fast_timeout  = APP_ADV_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS;
    ...
}
