 Two weeks ago I have started to learn about beacons and their usage. I have bought pca10040 development kit and designed custom nRF52832 based beacons. After following the tutorials and instructions without having any problem, I realised</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 29 Jun 2017 12:21:59 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/23117/creating-network-of-beacons-as-an-advertiser-and-any-mcu-as-a-central" /><item><title>RE: Creating network of beacons as an advertiser and any MCU as a central</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/90948?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 29 Jun 2017 12:21:59 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:a0f8b2fa-0907-4d37-a2cb-6ad4e6e0f484</guid><dc:creator>J&amp;#248;rgen Holmefjord</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Leonardo,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All the &lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v12.2.0/examples_ble_central.html?cp=4_0_2_4_2_0"&gt;BLE Central examples&lt;/a&gt; in our SDK implement scanning. You will get a &lt;code&gt;BLE_GAP_EVT_ADV_REPORT&lt;/code&gt; event when an advertising packet is received. The struct &lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.s132.api.v4.0.2/structble__gap__evt__adv__report__t.html?cp=2_3_0_1_1_2_1_4_37"&gt;&lt;code&gt;ble_gap_evt_adv_report_t&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/a&gt; contains the advertising packet and metadata. In the struct, RSSI and address of the peripheral is available.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I cannot provide any details for other MCUs than Nordic devices.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jørgen&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
