Hi, Do the S140 version 6.1.1 SoftDevice does have full support for S=2(500 kbps) ?

[jawadk]

if yes how can i choose between S=2 and S=8, where the change should take place, at the advertising init ?

Hi.

SoftDevice S140 version 6.1.0 is able to receive at 125 kbps (S=8) and 500 kbps (S=2). But it can only transmit at 125 kbps (S=8).

These rates are fixed, you only have to set your scanning or advertising phys to BLE_GAP_PHY_CODED,

Like this in nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_blinky\main.c :

Line 256:
adv_params.primary_phy     = BLE_GAP_PHY_1MBPS;

Change this line to:

adv_params.primary_phy     = BLE_GAP_PHY_CODED;

For scanning, you should for example in nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96\examples\ble_central\ble_app_gatts\, edit scan_phys in m_scan_param in main.c

FROM THIS:

/**< Scan parameters requested for scanning and connection. */
static ble_gap_scan_params_t const m_scan_param =
{
    .active        = 0x01,
    .interval      = NRF_BLE_SCAN_SCAN_INTERVAL,
    .window        = NRF_BLE_SCAN_SCAN_WINDOW,
    .filter_policy = BLE_GAP_SCAN_FP_WHITELIST,
    .timeout       = SCAN_DURATION_WITELIST,
    .scan_phys     = BLE_GAP_PHY_1MBPS,
};

TO THIS:

/**< Scan parameters requested for scanning and connection. */
static ble_gap_scan_params_t const m_scan_param =
{
    .active        = 0x01,
    .interval      = NRF_BLE_SCAN_SCAN_INTERVAL,
    .window        = NRF_BLE_SCAN_SCAN_WINDOW,
    .filter_policy = BLE_GAP_SCAN_FP_WHITELIST,
    .timeout       = SCAN_DURATION_WITELIST,
    .scan_phys     = BLE_GAP_PHY_CODED,
};

Best regards,

Andreas

I am using the ble uart c example 

and ble uart example for the next one

each with s140_nrf52_6.1.1_softdevice.hex

tried to add the code from nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96\examples\ble_central\ble_app_gatts\ to the my  ble uart c example , talking about the scan_init and scan_start functions

that is not working !

the functions d_ble_gap_scan_start() returns error 0x0007 - Invalid Parameter
