nRF52840 Sensor Network with SPI Sensor

[Ekmekci]

Dear All,

I am working with nRF52840 product. According to my scenario i have 1central unit(master) and up to 19 peripheral unit(slave).

I downloaded SDK 15.3.0 ble_central and ble_pripheral examples. These examples are very very good. They are sending button and led situations.

In my project, i have SPI sensor at slaves. So, i should read Spi register value and send to the master. 

How i can add Spi reading in to the ble_peripheral example

Best regards,

[Ekmekci]

I really dont understand, 

Either Nordic examples are very complex, or i dont understand.

I am trying to send my data over ble almost with 2months but i still cant do it.

I am just trying to sen "Counter = xxx" string to center unit. 

It seems it is impossible...

Could you be more specific on where you are stuck? Did you see my answer below? Did that make sense? If not, what specifically did you not understand?

Could you provide some code? Then it will be easier for me to understand what you are trying to do.

Best regards,

Simon

Dear Simon,

Thank you for your pasion and helpful answer.

When i try to use, 
nRF5_SDK_15.3.0_59ac345\examples\ble_central\ble_app_multilink_central
and
nRF5_SDK_15.3.0_59ac345\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_blinky

It connect upto 20, can send led state, can send button state. Everything is good. Only i cannot send string instead of state (Temperature :30) (just example)

When i try to use,
nRF5_SDK_15.3.0_59ac345\examples\ble_central\ble_app_uart_c
and
nRF5_SDK_15.3.0_59ac345\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_uart

It can only support 1 central, 1 peripheral
When i try to change 
NRF_SDH_BLE_CENTRAL_LINK_COUNT
and
NRF_SDH_BLE_PERIPHERAL_LINK_COUNT

It gives error : NRF_ERROR_NO_MEM


So, With these two ways i am facing some errors.

Do the following:

• Open the ble_app_uart example in SEGGER Embedded Studio
• Change NRF_SDH_BLE_CENTRAL_LINK_COUNT and NRF_SDH_BLE_PERIPHERAL_LINK_COUNT appropriately
• In sdk_config.h set NRF_LOG_BACKEND_RTT_ENABLED to 1
• Build your application
• Start a new debug session
  • Debug→Go→(Grren triangle)
• The program will stop and you will see something like this:

•  Change the RAM_START and RAM_SIZE as the log message specified
  • E.g. I have to change RAM_START to 0x20003D08 and RAM_SIZE to 0xC2F8
  • Follow section 4 in this tutorial, which shows you how to do this

Best regards,

Simon
