I see my reply was more delayed then I thought.

Unfortunately, we do not have an example of scanning beacons. See this case for more information.

Hi,

Can you please be more specific in what you mean with the correct answer? Please provide some output of the incorrect answer. What board, SDK and SoftDevice are you using?

Thank you.

So you you need a Central which scans for advertising packets, and reads the data from them.

@awneil i already wrote the code for Broadcasting beacon...now i need to write for reading beacon for that what should i do

Yes - that would be how a BLE Beacon works.

If you want the Peripheral to broadcast specific stuff in its advertising data, then you have to write the code to make it so.

For example, see:

@Øyvind thanks for the reply

but i am not getting correct answer anywhere that whether one(pheripheral) broadcasts and another(central) should read the data like rssi,major,minor,mac address and battery level of 1st nrf52dk

I'm sorry, I am not sure what you mean. Did you get an answer to your question? Information about RSSI, address etc can be retrieved using the SoftDevice API, see documentation here.
A similar case from DevZone can be found here, however with another version of SDK and SoftDevice.

Let me know if this helps.

Kind regards,
Oeyvind

@Øyvind now my central (reads data) should read the whole data like rssi,major,minor,mac address and battery level of peripheral (broadcasts data) beacon which is shown in the picture above

Hello,

Can you elaborate more on what you are trying to accomplish?

[quote user=""]two nrf52dks where in that one broadcasts and another should read the data[/quote]

The best way would be to look at the central (reads data) and peripheral (broadcasts data) examples. Once you have found what services you need, you can enable each service in the sdk_config.h using the Template Application as a starting point.

Kind regards,
Oeyvind

yes i saw but i am not getting which example to use....please help me

RE: reading the data of the one nrf52 by another nrf52 dk

awneil — Wed, 27 Feb 2019 12:33:49 GMT

So have you looked at the SDK examples to see if there's anything close to that?
