Extended Advertising Scannable

[lolek]

Hi

with SDK15 SD140 6.1.0. I'm trying to use BLE_GAP_ADV_TYPE_EXTENDED_NONCONNECTABLE_SCANNABLE_UNDIRECTED with CODED physical.

I run the following code

      static ble_gap_adv_data_t m_adv_beacon_data =
    {
        .adv_data =
            {
                .p_data = NULL,
                .len    = 0
            },
        .scan_rsp_data =
            {
                .p_data = m_becaon_rsdata,
                .len = BLE_GAP_SCAN_BUFFER_EXTENDED_MIN,

            }};
      
      ret_code_t err_code;
      ble_advdata_t const adv_data =
    {
        .name_type          = BLE_ADVDATA_FULL_NAME,
        .flags              = BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAGS_LE_ONLY_GENERAL_DISC_MODE,
        .include_appearance = false
    };

      err_code = ble_advdata_encode(&adv_data, m_adv_beacon_data.scan_rsp_data.p_data, &m_adv_beacon_data.scan_rsp_data.len);
      APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
      
      ble_gap_adv_params_t adv_params;

      memset(&adv_params, 0, sizeof(adv_params));

      adv_params.primary_phy = BLE_GAP_PHY_CODED;
      adv_params.secondary_phy = BLE_GAP_PHY_CODED;
      adv_params.p_peer_addr   = NULL,
      adv_params.duration = 0;
      adv_params.properties.type = BLE_GAP_ADV_TYPE_EXTENDED_NONCONNECTABLE_SCANNABLE_UNDIRECTED;
      adv_params.scan_req_notification = 1;
      adv_params.interval = APP_ADV_FAST_INTERVAL;
      adv_params.filter_policy = BLE_GAP_ADV_FP_ANY;
      err_code = sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure(&m_adv_handle, &m_adv_beacon_data, &adv_params);
      APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
     

and getting error 10: NRF_ERROR_INVALID_FLAGS . 

the idea is to have a scan response on CODED, so the peripheral can know it was being scanned.

the code is based on this link, although the next lines are commented there:

        else if(m_adv_scan_type_selected == SELECTION_NON_CONNECTABLE)
        {
            NRF_LOG_INFO("Advertising type set to EXTENDED_NONCONNECTABLE_SCANNABLE_UNDIRECTED ");
            adv_params.properties.type = BLE_GAP_ADV_TYPE_EXTENDED_NONCONNECTABLE_SCANNABLE_UNDIRECTED;
            
//            ret = ble_advdata_encode(&adv_data, m_adv_data_ext.scan_rsp_data.p_data, &m_adv_data_ext.scan_rsp_data.len);
//            APP_ERROR_CHECK(ret);

I would love to get explanation.

thanks...

No debug information? Do you still have "DEBUG" defined in your preprocessor defines?

Hi Edvin

I can't reply on your answer but it works perfectly.

you can mark it as an Answer...

thanks for the help,

Hello, Sorry. I mixed up. Try to define DEBUG in your preprocessor defines, it should give you some more information in the log where the error is coming from.

If it is not the same issue, please create a new ticket describing the issue.

Best regards,

When I use this code,  sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure is returning error code 7.Any suggestions?

...Actually, sd_ble_gap_adv_set_configure() retuens an error code 7 when using BLE_GAP_ADV_TYPE_EXTENDED_NONCONNECTABLE_SCANNABLE_UNDIRECTED. I'll create a seperate thread.
