How to use Advertising extensions function

[Alice]

Hi,

I'm using nRF52832 on nRF52 SDK v15.0 with S132v6.0. I know that 52832 support high throughput and advertising extension.  We have more than 31 bytes data to put in the advertising packet. However, when the advertising packet. size more tha 31, it coundn't advertise. Could you tell me how to use the function? Thanks.

Hi,

Edit: Updated as the initial answer was incorrect.

The S132 version 6.0.0 has partial support for advertising extension. The advertisement packet can point to a different channel where the extended advertisement packets can be found. However, the maximum length for these are still 31 bytes.S132 version 6.1.0 will most likely have full support for advertising extension.

(You can test the limited advertising extension module if you like, though it will not actually help you yet. You should set ble_advertising_init_t::config::ble_adv_extended_enabled to true if you use the Advertising Module. This is used in the Running Speed and Cadence Application example in SDK 15.)

Now the S132 version 6.1.0  has been released, I have program the ble_app_rscs exemple tp PCA10040, but it couldn't advertise anything
