Hi,

I would recommend that you post a new question where you describe in detail what you are trying to do, what you have done, and what is not working.

Best regards,
Jørgen

Hello Jorgen,

I tried to change the DIS's char. as you mentioned. And referred the example as the following web link (https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/41257/dis-update-serial-number). Unfortunately, it doesn't work at all. Have anything I missed at the process what I implemented. I post the implement what I tried for your reference. Could you take a time to see for me?

uint32_t ble_dis_update(char * serial_num)
//uint32_t ble_dis_update(uint8_t length, uint8_t * buff)
{
ble_gatts_value_t gatts_value;
uint32_t err_code = NRF_SUCCESS;
ble_srv_utf8_str_t serial_num_str;

ble_srv_ascii_to_utf8(&serial_num_str, serial_num);

memset(&gatts_value, 0, sizeof(gatts_value));

gatts_value.len = serial_num_str.length; //sizeof(uint8_t);
gatts_value.offset = 0;
gatts_value.p_value = serial_num_str.p_str;

// Update database.
err_code = sd_ble_gatts_value_set(service_handle, fw_rev_handles.value_handle, &gatts_value);

return err_code;
}

ble_dis_update("1.1.0");

I understand what you are asking, I was just telling you where the handle is stored. You will have to modify the service implementation to expose the handle to the application. Note the comment in the service header file about changing the service implementation:

 * @note Attention!
 *  To maintain compliance with Nordic Semiconductor ASA Bluetooth profile
 *  qualification listings, this section of source code must not be modified.

Hi, Jorgen:

actually I want to use sd_ble_gatts_value_set to update the value after sd_ble_gatts_characteristic_add, which I did the same with sdk11, the sd_ble_gatts_value_set need an input of uint16_t conn_handle, the serial_num_handles is different.

The handles for the characteristics are stored in structs inside ble_dis.c. Serial number handles are stored in:

ble_gatts_char_handles_t serial_num_handles;

A reference to this struct is passed to char_add in ble_dis_init, which again pass this to sd_ble_gatts_characteristic_add where it is filled with the assigned handle.

Best regards,
Jørgen
