I didn't get you. Can you elaborate?

Thank you for your reply, but adjusting #define NON_CONNECTABLE_ADV_INTERVAL changes the advertising interval but has nothing to do with the data rate. The speed at which data is transferred within the computer or between a peripheral device and the computer, measured in bytes per second is called Data-rate. The “Interval” setting determines how often your beacon will transmit its advertising packet. Both are completely different. What I needed was how to change the data rate of the advertisement, not how much time interval should be there between each advertisement packet.

This is what I know. Please correct me if I am wrong. Thank you again for taking the time to reply.

Hi,

[quote user=""]I need to reduce the data rate of the advertisement. How can I change the data rate?[/quote]

Adjust this value in main.c

#define NON_CONNECTABLE_ADV_INTERVAL    MSEC_TO_UNITS(100, UNIT_0_625_MS)  /**< The advertising interval for non-connectable advertisement (100 ms). This value can vary between 100ms to 10.24s). */

If you want to advertise e.g every 500ms, set it like this:

#define NON_CONNECTABLE_ADV_INTERVAL    MSEC_TO_UNITS(500, UNIT_0_625_MS)

Did they send you data packages?
