Toggle GPIO on Beacon when out of range of Phone?

[Tartheis]

Hello,

I'm just starting to use the nRF Smart Beacon kit.

Is it possible to have the beacon toggle a GPIO on-board when the beacon is out of range of the phone/app?

Also, is a specific compiler needed to create the application .hex file?

I am willing to pay an experienced nRF developer to walk me through re-programming the app on the Smart Beacon.

Email me at [email protected]

Thanks,

Mike

Have you seen the Proximity Application example? That example makes it possible to connect to the phone through nRF Connect, and blink a LED on the board when the phone is out of range.

Regarding compiler, if you are using Keil, it should work fine to use the included Arm/C/C++ Compilers.

What specifically is your goal regarding re-programming the Smart Beacon app? My knowledge is not great about this, but I might be able to help you.

Best regards, Simon

I've managed to use Keil to compile a new application .hex file, but it failed to upload to the Beacon.

Is it possible to just update the beacon application file, or do I have to re-flash the bootloader as well?
