 BLE: nrf8001(non-connectable mode) 
 MCU: MSP430F5529 
 
 Problem: 
 I would like to use MCU&amp;#39;s timer interrupt to wake up nrf8001 for broadcasting. But after nrf8001 first STAND-BY mode, I don&amp;#39;t know how to wake up the nrf8001?</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Tue, 24 Apr 2018 15:06:09 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/33751/can-i-broadcast-once-an-hour-from-nrf8001" /><item><title>RE: Can I broadcast once an hour from nrf8001?</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/129619?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Tue, 24 Apr 2018 15:06:09 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:ea6722d6-3090-41df-b0b2-9209b83d2d98</guid><dc:creator>David Edwin</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;The nRF8001 should be put to sleep using the sleep command and then woken up using the Wakeup command.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can then send the ACI Broadcast command to broadcast the packets.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you do not want to use the sleep command then the nRF8001 will be in Standby mode all the time and is ready to accept commands.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The sleep mode consumes less power as compared to standby, see the Section 12.4 for Current Consumption parameters for I_idle and I_sleep&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
