starting with s120

Hi everyone, I have just started using the s120 softdevice to implement a Central BLE device. The starting idea is to start with scanning and reading the advertisement data. I've had a look at the example code today and found the examples very complicated and hard to understand, most unfortunately the most difficult ones is the initialization of "Device manager" and the handlers some other BLE events. Is there a way or some kind of materials that I can start learning to use this softdevice with. I understand basic concepts of Bluetooth 4.1, but do not really know how to implement those with code.

  • Hi

    The nRF51 SDK documentation is here. The S120 API is here

    The documentation for the available S120 examples are here

    Documentation for the device manager can be found here

    A good starting point to BLE development on the nRF51822 device is to look at the nAN-36 application note. The associated code example is available for SDK 5.2.0 here. To get up to speed with BLE, there are two good books available on the subject, this one and this one. Additionally, if you want to look at these books right away, then they are both available on www.safaribooksonline.com, where they offer 30 day trial period.
