https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/5581/beacon-configurationI am using the nRF51822 and code base 6.1 How can I program the advertising mode of the beacon to not time out. I am looking to advertise for 10 seconds and then go to sleep for for 10 seconds.

The ble_app_beacon example in SDK 7.2.0 sets the advertising timeout the following way:</p> <pre><code>#define APP_CFG_NON_CONN_ADV_TIMEOUT 0 /**&lt; Time for which the device must be advertising in non-connectable mode (in seconds). 0 disables timeout. */ </code></pre><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/19553?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 16 Feb 2015 07:44:01 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:4bd216cb-3df2-4d45-9b56-34180b58f70akaku<p>Hi,</p> <p>As long as I&#39;m seeing main.c in ble_app_beacon based on SDK6.1, it is not set for timeout. Also you can change the advertisment interval for 10s.</p> <p>Thanks.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
