nrf51822 Direct connection

Hello!

I need to perform directional connection from the phone to the device on nrf51822. The device should be hidden to the search, but allow connection if know mac address.

Maybe do it? If possible, how to do it?

Regards.

  • If your phone is a central and the nRF51822 is a peripheral, the nRF51822 must advertise before it can be in a connection. Anyone can scan the advertising packets, it is not possible to hide them.

    If your phone is a peripheral(supported by some iOS devices) and the nRF51822 is a central, the nRF51822 could stay hidden, just scanning for advertising packets from the phone.
