Sending string over eddystone tlm

[asmita_patil]

i want to send string over eddystone tlm...and wish to use temperature part for this...so how can i display character string instead of temperature in eddystone TLM..please help

[asmita_patil]

i have one more question

on button press eddystone starts connectable adv...as the below function says..

but again take a look at function below

nrf_ble_es_init(on_es_evt); is called in main()

then whatdoes this "es_adv_start_non_connctable_adv();" function means.....????

does this starts a non connectable adv..???

if yes the why we stay connected in app???

Hi, 

Please tell why you want to use Eddystone to show text when it supposed to show temperature  ? 

I would suggest you to have a look at the ble_app_blinky example, the counter part for that is the nRFBlinky app  on the phone.

thank you so much.

thank you

Regarding your question, Eddy stone is designed to be a beacon. A beacon is not expected to do a connection. 

But when you press a button, we start connectable advertising to allow a phone to connect to the beacon to do configuration. When sending connectable advertising it the nonconnectable advertising will be halted.
