Hi! How is the functionality choosen, the nRF51822 has to offer? Is the SoftDevice (e.g. SD120) an API in C where a specific functionality (e.g. central role listening to iBeacons) is chosen via specific usage of API and separate compiled C-code? Or is a SoftDevice always fully functional and the service is chosen by serial commands, eg. AT via UART?
Application: The nRF51822 would be the central role listening to iBeacon-Slaves. We just need to differ several iBeacons. Is a connection/bonding needed? Or can we just "listen" to the standard iBeacon packets of the nRF Beacon Kit? It would be OK to just read a MAC address instead of the iBeacon content(minor major, etc) What do you recommend to use as a partner for the round Beacon Kit? (no smartphone)
HW: We have 2 nRF iBeacon Kits and one mKit. It would be fine to get the mKit as the partner receiving iBeacons MAC-adresses or the iBeacon content.
Thanks for Answer in advance!
