Hi,

Yes, that is possible.

Hi,

thanks for your reply. Can use the code upon connection event? When the connection is successful then I can immediately send the parameter update request?

waiting for your reply.

Hi,

[quote userid="24414" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/30926/how-to-send-connection-parameters-update-request-from-peripheral"]new_conn_parameters.min_conn_interval = MSEC_TO_UNITS(6, UNIT_1_25_MS);[/quote]

You are converting to milliseconds here, so 6 ms is not a valid value. 7.5 ms (6 in units of 1.25 ms) is the lowest connection interval allowed by the BLE spec. The function ble_conn_params_change_conn_params() will with 6ms return the value NRF_ERROR_INVALID_PARAM, and the connection parameter update request will not be sent. You should also check the return value from the function. Snippet:

ble_gap_conn_params_t  updated_cnxn_param;
uint32_t               retval;
// Update in Connection parameters preferred by the application.
updated_cnxn_param.min_conn_interval = MIN_CONN_INTERVAL;
updated_cnxn_param.max_conn_interval = MAX_CONN_INTERVAL;
updated_cnxn_param.slave_latency     = SLAVE_LATENCY;
updated_cnxn_param.conn_sup_timeout  = CONN_SUP_TIMEOUT;
// Initialize and set-up connection parameter negotiation module.
retval = ble_conn_params_change_conn_params(&updated_cnxn_param);

if(retval == NRF_SUCCESS)
{
   // Procedure request succeeded. Connection parameters will be negotiated as requested.
   // BLE_CONN_PARAMS_EVT_SUCCEEDED will be notified if parameter negotiation is successful.
   NRF_LOG_INFO("Procedure request succeeded. Connection parameters will be negotiated as requested");
}
else
{
    // Procedure request failed.
    NRF_LOG_INFO("Procedure request failed: %d",retval);
}
