coded phy before establish a connection

[AmitEdvy]

Hi, 

I am performing the following test:

https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/nordic/b/blog/posts/testing-long-range-coded-phy-with-nordic-solution-it-simply-works-922075585?tempkey=826852aa-ab4a-4e10-8c17-1ec6d70d3e2d

with project ble_app_att_mtu_throughput_test  s140_nrf52_6.1.1  

How can I be sure that the advertising and the connection establishment (meaning, before the units are already connected) is on the coded phy? 

Using the logs, I can only see that phy was updates *during* the connection process.

After executing "config phy coded", is the advertising on coded only? or both 1M and coded? just 1M? ...

Thank you in advance,

Amit

Hi,

The connection will be established with CODED PHY if that's the PHY you used for advertising. I made an example for this which I uploaded here: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/40476/unable-to-convert-to-long-range-after-looking-at-umpteen-examples--/157300#157300

Hi,

I compared the example you uploaded (https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/40476/unable-to-convert-to-long-range-after-looking-at-umpteen-examples--/157300#157300 ) to the original UART base project from the SDK's examples, and I tried to implement those changes in ble_app_att_mtu_throughput_test  which I was testing with, but still couldn't get the ble_app_att_mtu_throughput_test  project to advertise and connect in coded_phy.

So now I am leaving behind the ble_app_att_mtu_throughput_test   and I am trying to test the distances with the example you uploaded.

The using the example you sent me: the unit indeed advertises using coded phy, but I could not connect.

I am trying to connect via nRF Connect application on a mobile phone which supports BT5 coded_phy feature (OnePlus 6)

I'd appreciate you help.

Hi,

Try to click the 3 dots next to the CONNECT button and select LE coded as the preferred PHY. It will attempt to use LE 1M by default.
