Beacon Scanner Development

[kaushik24psl]

Hi

nRF52 dongle as beacon---- Code used ble pheripheral/ble_app_beacon/pca 10056/s140

nRF52840 DK as scanner ----Code used ble_app_uart_c_pca10056_s140 

what changes should be made in uart code to be able to scan the beacons

also please u can suggest me if there is another method available for sacnning those beacons

The UART code has nothing to do with BLE scanning!

Or are you asking how to see the usual DK (pca10056) UART output when running on a Dongle (pca10059) ?

For that, see:  https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/37430/moving-from-pca10056-to-pca10059

"Scanning for beacons" is just a standard matter of listening for Advertising packets - every Central example has to do that in order to find Peripherals!

There seems to have been a sudden outbreak of these questions lately:

Hello 

Thanks for providing me relevent references which solved my  problem of scanner system

Now im moving on to making a Gateway using Nordic 52840 DK

operation of Gateway should be such that it should detect the no of scanners in it visinity and detrmine the data and further post it to the server.

kindly provide me some help

thanks
