Testing on Modules of Alert Notification Application and Immediate Alert Client Application

[swathi p]

Hi Sir/Madam,

I tried testing Alert Application notification by performing mentioned testing steps but after i reach 4th step i.e Bond to the device from nRF Connect (the device is advertising as 'Nordic_Alert_Notif'). To bond, click the settings button for the server in nRF Connect, select "Security parameters", check "Perform Bonding", and click "Apply". Then connect to the device. Observe that the BSP_INDICATE_CONNECTED state is indicated.

Problems noticed:

1)Unable to find device advertising as 'Nordic_Alert_Notif' 

2)Unable to observe  BSP_INDICATE_CONNECTED state is indicated.

 

I also tried testing  Immediate Alert Client Application and followed mentioned steps but coudn't find <InstallFolder>\examples\ble_peripheral\experimental\ble_app_ias_c folder. Load the file findMeMasterServer.ncs. but it is found to be in nRF5_SDK_15.3.0_59ac345\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_ias_c tried loading findMeMasterServer.ncs from this folder.

and then tried to connect to the device named nRF Connect but when i press button 1 and observe change in value is not noticed as mentioned.

Thank You.

Hi.

Have you programmed / flashed the Application correctly?

You should see it advertising.

Hi,

NOTE:The application program is from SDK 15.3.0 and in that related softdevice is of V6.1.1

yes,I programmed the application by following mentioned procedure.But,intially when i select the device through nRF Connect(desktop) I was asked to program the device and then i clicked 'yes' and i observed in the log it  displayed that v3 of softdevice is downloaded ,when i click 'no' nRF Connect(desktop) is getting crashed.

what might be the misleading factor?

Thank You.

Hi.

You need to have two devices, one device you program the application on, the other device you open in nRF Connect for Desktop and program with that.

Best regards,

Hi,

Ok Thank You for making clear.If you have already mentioned this point before performing required steps to test it might not lead me to ask you this question.

If i have single board please suggest me whether it is possible to test Alert Notification services?if so,then how?

Thank you.

Hi.

Yes, you can download the mobile application named nRF Connect and use that instead.

Best regards,

Hi,

NOTE:Testing on Alert Notification application of SDK15.3.0

As you suggested i started performing testing using mobile application named nRF Connect.I am trying to advertise it from mobile(NRF Connect) and scan on desktop(nRF Connect) and there are some details of service UUID,service data are to be manually entered in mobile app.Please help me in letting know details to be entered in mobile nRF connect app and further steps.

Thank you.

Hi.

I've had a more thorough look at the nRF Connect Mobile application.

If you are going to use 1 mobile and 1 DK I think you have to configure the server manually on the mobile phone.

So you have to configure all the information found in AlertNotifServer.ncs manually if you don't use two DK's.

Best regards,

Andreas
