Scan response data to be added to SDK ble_app_beacon example

How can I add scan response data to the SDK example ble_app_beacon?

Parents
  • Hi!

    The approach might vary depending on what version of the SDK you are working with.

    Maybe you could provide a little more information?

    SDK version, what device, softdevice version etc. is useful information to add in your questions.

    However, you can take a look at our advertising tutorial, and the chapter about the Scan response data.
    The tutorial is from one of the older SDK but the approach will be similiar.

    Also, the ble_app_uart example adds data to the scan reponse packet, so you can get an idea of how it's done.

    Let me know if you have any further questions.
    Best regards,
    Joakim.

     

  • I have looked into the ble_app_uart example, but I cannot find the line(s) where the scan response data is set.

    I receive

          Advertisement data:    02:01:05:0C:09:4E:6F:72:64:69:63:5F:55:41:52:54   (here at the end is Nordic_UART)

          Scan response data: 11:07:9E:CA:DC:24:0E:E5:A9:E0:93:F3:A3:B5:01:00:40:6E

    But where is the scan response data in the code?

    Thanks for your help!

  • Hi.

    Thanks for sharing your solution, so that others might benefit from it.

    Best regards,
    Joakim.

  • Also do not forget to change these lines (if not yet done):

    static ble_gap_adv_data_t m_adv_data =
    {
        .adv_data =
        {
            .p_data = m_enc_advdata,
            .len    = BLE_GAP_ADV_SET_DATA_SIZE_MAX
        },
        .scan_rsp_data =
        {
            .p_data = m_enc_scan_response_data, //was NULL,
            .len    = BLE_GAP_ADV_SET_DATA_SIZE_MAX // was 0
    
        }
    };
    

  • In this code when it says m_enc_scan_response_data is undeclared.

    If possible can you please share your main.c file, would greatly help indeed.

  • Added m_enc_scan_response_data by:

    static uint8_t              m_enc_scan_response_data[BLE_GAP_ADV_SET_DATA_SIZE_MAX];


    Also add:

    #define APP_ADV_INTERVAL                64                                  /**< The advertising interval (in units of 0.625 ms. This value corresponds to 40 ms). */
    
    #define APP_ADV_DURATION                18000 


    But I am still having an error at :

        err_code = sd_ble_gap_adv_start(m_adv_handle, APP_BLE_CONN_CFG_TAG);
        APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);


    With error code 0x12

    and if I change:

    #define NRF_SDH_BLE_PERIPHERAL_LINK_COUNT 1   //was 0 - AUAK in sdk_config.h

    It gives an error at:

        err_code = nrf_sdh_ble_enable(&ram_start);
        APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);


    with error code = 0x04

    Would greatly appreciate help on this and do not hesitate to clarify any information.

  • The code my Wim has been of great help and I compiled it into a main.c file:

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Also do not forget to change this in sdk_config.h

    #define NRF_SDH_BLE_PERIPHERAL_LINK_COUNT 1 //was previously 0

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    and if you get an error code 0x04 at the below code (you can trace it via debugging):


    err_code = nrf_sdh_ble_enable(&ram_start);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    Then you need to change the RAM_START and RAM_SIZE (this link can guide you to it :https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/34853/nrf_shd_ble_enable-function-error-code-4-no-memeory-for-operation)

    Also do not forget to change this in sdk_config.h

    #define NRF_SDH_BLE_PERIPHERAL_LINK_COUNT 1 //was previously 0

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    and if you get an error code 0x04 at the below code (you can trace it via debugging):


    err_code = nrf_sdh_ble_enable(&ram_start);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    Then you need to change the RAM_START and RAM_SIZE (this link can guide you to it :https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/34853/nrf_shd_ble_enable-function-error-code-4-no-memeory-for-operation)

    Do not hesitate to ask any information if needed by anyone Slight smile
