ble as a scanning device

[Mohamed O.Abouzeid]

Dear Guys,

I wonder if there is any possibility to have my ble as a scanning device but for softdevice version s110, I'm asking because I found all the examples are with S120 and S130.

and of course if I can specify a ble device to do scanning for.

Regards,

Mohamed Osama

No, S110 supports only GAP Broadcaster/Peripheral. Go for 130, no other SD is supported by Nordic on nRF51 today.

Not sure what you mean by contradiction but yes, you can upgrade from FW + S110 to different FW + S130. MBRs (which are the only parts to matter for OTA update) are compatible but you will need to put some effort to first migrate your FW to S130 V2 API (there are several changes since your pre-historic S110;) and second to make bootloader working for this migration. There is no example as far as I know but you won't be the first one to do this so it should pass at some point.
