BLE Switching between beacon and UART

[pan2]

Hi ,I'm using nRF52832 Bluetooth DK and (SDK15.3.0) , I am trying to switch between beacon mode and uart mode without the need to reset button ,
e.g with reset button from p0.21:I tried changing the mode if reset source from button reset p0.21 then go to the uart , if reset from soft reset go to beacon how i do that from a simple button in other gpio ?

 

    if (NRF_POWER->RESETREAS & 0x00000004)
      ......
 
    ble_stack_init2();
    advertising_init2();
    NRF_LOG_INFO("Beacon example started.");
    advertising_start2();
    for (;; )
    {
        idle_state_handle();
    }    
}

            else {

    log_init();
    timers_init();
    ble_stack_init();
    gap_params_init();
    gatt_init();
    services_init();
    advertising_init();
    conn_params_init();

    // Start execution.
    //printf("\r\nUART started.\r\n");
   // NRF_LOG_INFO("Debug logging for UART over RTT started.");
    advertising_start();

    // Enter main loop.
    for (;;)
    {
        idle_state_handle();
    }

How should I do?. Thanks in advance .

Hi

I am struggling to understand what exactly you want. Do you want to switch between UART and Beacon advertising without resetting? In that case, take a look at the ble_app_uart example, and try modifying it to act as a beacon instead of a connectable Bluetooth peripheral. 

If you want to change between these two peripherals using a button, that shouldn't be so hard implementing into the ble_app_uart example either.

If you want to set the reset button as another button on your DK, that is not possible.

Best regards,

Thank you Simon,i tried ... can you give me a simple example that explain the steps how to transform from mode beacon to connected mode  without any problem ? , What is the  function should be stopped ? What is the function should be activated?
