ble_app_multilink_central on PCA10001

[jeff]

Hi,

I'm attempting to use 'S120/experimental/ble_app_multilink_central' running on a pca10001 to better understand the central / peripherial comm sequencing on the nrf51.

Using the ble_app_multilink_central with no changes except for the TARGET_DEV_NAME can someone help me understand the peripherial configuration details that will cause the central in this default configuration to generate events?

Thanks,

Jeff

I also try to port "BLE Multi-link Example" to run on PCA10001.My actions are:

List item

1. I download "nrf51_sdk_v6_0_0_43681" and "s120_nrf51822_1.0.0_softdevice.hex"
2. Load with nRFgo "s120_nrf51822_1.0.0_softdevice.hex" file to PCA10001
3. Change BOARD_NRF6310 definition to BOARD_PCA10001 as explain devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../a00064.html and Erik Sanchez
4. Redefine CONNECTED_LED_PIN_NO to LED_0 and ASSERT_LED_PIN_NO to LED_1
5. Replace #include "nrf6310.h" with #include "boards.h"in main.c file.
6. Set HWFC to false in pca10001.h to connect uart to PC terminal. After that while debugging i get: [APPL]: ASSERT: src/rem.c, 1373, error 0xdeadbeef.
7. So i try to load s110_softdevice hex to flash, then i load "ble_app_multilink_central" to flash by address 0x16000 and 0x20002000. After that PCA10001 board begin to send via UART message: [APPL]: ASSERT: ..\client_handling.c, 314, error 0x00003001. This error mean that " SVC handler is missing " ( when call function sd_ble_uuid_vs_add() in client_handling.c, 314 ).

P.s. I do not forget to rebuilt my application with the header files that come with used version of the SoftDevice. Using s120 (1.0.0.3) version with replacing header files in directory

nrf51_sdk_v6_0_0_43681\nrf51822\Include\s120

let me to get error:

[APPL]: ASSERT: src/rem.c, 1369, error 0xdeadbeef

So explain me please which SoftDevice version i need to use ( s110 or s120 ) and how to port ble_app_multilink_central project to run it on PCA10001 corrrectly? Thanks)

P.s. I understand. This error occurs when you try to debug SoftDevice code. It is normal. Maybe someone useful sample code in attachment: example of a peripheral BLE on pca10000 and the central BLE unit on pca10001.nrf51_sdk_v6_0_0_43681_s110.rar

6. You will need HWFC on the pca10001 board in order for the UART to work reliably.
7. You need to use the S120 softdevice for anything that involves a central role (unless you try the S130 SD).
