Hi again. Yes, we support OTA, please see this example. There is also a tutorial for getting started with Nordic's DFU bootloader, that you could take a look at.

[quote user="dnguyen2019"]Is there OTA (bootloader) available for this UART SW?[/quote]

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Could you clarify? OTA uses BLE, so it won't interfere with your UART implementation.

Best regards,

Heidi

Hi Heidi,

I need space for OTA so it is ok for me to use the software based on UART. Is this software support OTA? Is there OTA (bootloader) available for this UART SW?

We use UART software base and write an iphone App for it, which should work. right?

dnguyen2019 — Fri, 13 Sep 2019 14:13:56 GMT

so I need to add all the UART modules.?

Yes, as I said you should modify the ble_app_hrs example, by removing the Heart Rate Service and adding the Nordic UART Service. This way your Bluetooth module (nRF52810) will pair with the device.

Right now, I got UART example software working with nRF toolbox. it receives the data from nRF toolbox APP and sends to MAIN CPU. I did receive data from main CPU.

Can I modify ble_app_hrs as a base so I can connect to nRF toolbox with UART function?

I think using the ble_app_hrs as a base, and switching out the Heart Rate Service for the Nordic UART Service is a good idea. Then, in addition, adding the UART functionality to send the data to the CPU.

Heidi,

What do you think? I use UART SW as a based code for my project & I can write an iphone/android APP similar to nRF toobox UART application

I try to add peer manager into UART software but software does not go pass "peer_manager_init();"

Note: I got pass the "peer_manager_init();" now. Is it I need to modify advertising portion for pairing?

RE: example software

dnguyen2019 — Wed, 11 Sep 2019 15:26:50 GMT

Actually, we only need to pair with the APP. so if we use the UART software and we can write an APP similar to nRF toolbox (UART) then it should work? Can you share the UART app software?

RE: example software

dnguyen2019 — Wed, 11 Sep 2019 15:06:37 GMT

or use start using "ble_app_hrs" example then add UART portion? additional information: we also need to create an APP for iphone and android phone simialr to nRF toolbox that use for UART. let me know which option is easier to implement.

Can I use uart example then add the peer manager to it?

RE: example software

Heidi — Wed, 11 Sep 2019 13:24:49 GMT

Oh sorry, I missed that part of your original post. If you want to include pairing, you need to use a Peer Manager, like in the ble_app_hrs example here.

dnguyen2019 — Wed, 11 Sep 2019 12:34:47 GMT

Thanks, it seems working with nRF toolbox. Is this possible that I can modify the advertising package so I can pair with android and iPhone?

Hi!

I don't think any single example will do those three things combined.

The UART / Serial Port Emulation over BLE example found here let's you use the nRF Toolbox application to send messages from a device to the nRF52810, and the message gets sent via UART to the computer. I suggest using this example as the base and modifying the part of the code that handles the received data, to send it to the CPU via UART.

For UART you can check out the UART example under examples\peripheral\uart in the SDK. Here the pins are configured in the main function by defining comm_params and calling APP_UART_FIFO_INIT.

const app_uart_comm_params_t comm_params =
{
    RX_PIN_NUMBER,
    TX_PIN_NUMBER,
    RTS_PIN_NUMBER,
    CTS_PIN_NUMBER,
    UART_HWFC,
    false,
#if defined (UART_PRESENT)
    NRF_UART_BAUDRATE_115200
#else
   NRF_UARTE_BAUDRATE_115200
#endif
};

APP_UART_FIFO_INIT(&comm_params,
                   UART_RX_BUF_SIZE,
                   UART_TX_BUF_SIZE,
                   uart_error_handle,
                   APP_IRQ_PRIORITY_LOWEST,
                   err_code);

Best regards,

Heidi
