I already figured it out. See this question for details:

Hi vittopascu, may I ask how you managed to do that? I'm trying to do the same thing here and added a call to es_slot_on_write from the main.c for slot 0 with the new frame data as I would like to send. I see that the call does reach the configure_slot function (small debug-print) but it ends up in reporting a Fatal error. Do I need to call extra functions to get this working properly?

Hi, thank you for your answer, the function es_slot_on_write() from es_slot.c does the trick. However I changed the SDK code a little so that I am able to feed an es_url_frame_t or es_uid_frame_t directly, without the need to remove the ranging data field.

Hi,

Everything the mobile app can do, should be possible to do directly from code as well. Take a look at the function es_gatts_write_handle_unlocked_write() in es_gatts_write.c, and the different functions in es_slot.c
