ble as a scanning device

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.

  • I don't understand what you call "multiple" FOTA. For me it's just Over The Air Frimware update as any other. To the topic: sure, Nordic examples don't show reverse GAP roles (target device being GAP Central) but as you can feel tha1t's rather cosmetic change. The transport of image is done little bit differently but otherwise it's the same thing. I believe someone already succeeded with this architecture and Nordic way of upgrading firmware, I would search this forum and internet. If not successful then post new question and hope that someone will help you, in the worst case you will need to write it yourself. Alternatively you can keep GAP Peripheral role for OTA Firmware update, would that be any problem? Normally it isn't...
