I am using proprietary radio between 2 nrf51 devices, by copying from an example see code below.
That works but now I want to have more pairs of devices and I need to have unique addresses.
You would think I only need to change the TX and RX Adress registers but it is not so simple.
After doing some reading I think they only select the pipes (for reception of multiple addresses)
So since I have have 4 bytes address length I will only need to change the base0 address ?
And I can set RX and TX to 0 and leave the prefix alone ?
Or can I use one of the 8 bluetooth adresses DAB[] ?
I only need to send a sync packet so I don't want Enhanced shockburst retransmission etc, is this standard off or do I need to set a register ?
