Peripheral in a connected mode and broadcaster

For nRF51 series chips and S110, S120, S130 soft devices.

Is it somehow possible to have a connected ble peripheral while broadcasting data?

S110 spec doc says "broadcaster can run concurrently with a peripheral in a connection.". It seems that it should be possible. Is this really the case? I could not find any working code examples that do that.

  • Thanks Petter. I was able to test this on S110. Is it possible to do something similar on S310? I'm basically trying to decide on my stack, so I could implement mesh networking. It seems that you cannot be a scanner and broadcaster at the same time on S110. I was looking at examples on your github page at github.com/.../. It looks like you're not using standard softdevice ble calls but accessing radio directly. I was thinking about implementing mesh with ant but i'd also like to be able to broadcast data on S310 while in connected mode, in case we decide to move mesh to bluetooth completely. Thanks.

  • So, have you tried to restart advertising after connection and it works?
