S110 - Sending multiple notifications per connection event

[Joseph]

Hello,

I have a couple of questions about sending multiple notifications:

1. I want to send multiple notifications (from same characteristic), is that allowed by S110 softdevice?

2. What is the maximum number of packets that S110 could process per connection event?

3. If I send 3 notifications in the order N1, N2 & N3 at same time, the receiving end will get them with the same order, is that correct?

4. A BLE_EVT_TX_COMPLETE event will be generated when the packet has been transmitted, so if I send 3 notifications at same time, 3 BLE_EVT_TX_COMPLETE events will be generated, is that correct?

5. If a BLE_EVT_TX_COMPLETE event is generated for the packet transmission, does it mean that the packet has been successfully received by the receiver?

Thank you for your attention! Joseph

What is the best way to ensure that the peer has actually processed it? Add a characteristic (i.e. flag) that the peer can write to indicate that it has completed? For example:

clear the flag send out the packet wait for the BLE_EVT_TX_COMPLETE AND the flag to be set by the peer clear the flag and send out next packet

Use indications instead of notifications if you need to make sure the remote Host has received and processed the packet.

If you want something more efficient then as mentioned, take look at the DFU example.
