RE: Advertising and Oberving on specific channels

It is possible to advertise on a given channel by using the radio timeslot API in S110, but this does not yet exist in softdevices with central roles. This could be a temporary solution until the real deal comes with the newest versions. I think there might be a code snippet for this in the SDK.

The S110 SoftDevice does not support specific advertising channels, but we want to include this in the next release, if you send me a PM with your location, the Sales Manager for your area may be able give you more info.

For the central side, SoftDevice S120, I don't know when or if we will support it, again, our Sales Manager may know more. The same applies to SoftDevice S130.

If your device is switching between advertising and scanning, the SoftDevice S120 version 2 may be sufficient, but it is currently in a alpha release.

If you need concurrent advertising and scanning, you need to use SoftDevice S130, but this is currently an alpha release.

As Star Destroyer mentions in this question can use the example you found to advertise on one channel, but you can't go into a connection with the timeslot API.
