Hi Simonr, by the way, where can I get the concatenate function declaration for the specific word "interval " and "duration" since APP_ADV_INTERVAL and DURATION are not possible to edit though and have these units for a reason.

Hi Simonr, thank you so much, you are so helpful.

Yes, I forgot to mention that. But you are correct!

Best regards,

Oh so grateful U get what I want.

I found if I #define MYTIME_INTERVAL 3000 (with interval word) this will be in units of 0.625 ms.

with duration word , it will be in units of 10ms.

Hi Kathleen

Sorry about the confusion, but I see what you mean now.

All timer units are by default in ms (milliseconds). However, as you can see in I.E. the ble_app_blinky example in the MIN_CONN_INTERVAL define, you can convert them to units of your choice by way of the MSEC_TO_UNITS() function. APP_ADV_INTERVAL and DURATION are not possible to edit though and have these units for a reason.

In conclusion, timers that are defined by you, will by default be stated in units of 1ms, unless you convert them using the MSEC_TO_UNITS() function.

Hi Simon, thanks for the reply. I do know the comment // written. To program own time, I do not know which specific word linked to the unit of 10ms or unit of 0.625ms..

for example , i need a duration of 30s with interval 625ms . how do i know the compiler build the 30s and 625ms accordingly since the comment didn't show up if i #define a macro myself. Or I have 5 timing for advertising. All of them are not the same timing, how to I know which to which.

#define mytime1 30000

#define mytime2 50000

#define mytime3 10000

#define mytime4 25000

#define mytime5 32000

I hope you get my idea. Thank you .

In our SDK the comments always tell what units you are working with, so I don't see what exactly you want to be taught.

Best regards,

Simon
