Hi,

[quote user="woytekm"]Should i call pm_sec_params_set with different parameter set when i want to connect to peripheral as central (bonding/encryption on), and different set (no bonding, no encryption) when i'm advertising as peripheral?[/quote]

Yes, or do not call pm_sec_params_set for No pairing/bonding. See PM/Usage.

Hi Amanda, so how should i approach this? Should i call pm_sec_params_set with different parameter set when i want to connect to peripheral as central (bonding/encryption on), and different set (no bonding, no encryption) when i'm advertising as peripheral? I don't really see anything related to such case in peer manager documentation... Or is it somehow possible to avoid using Peer Manager for peripheral role and use it only for central part of the application?

Thanks,

Wojtek

Hi,

[quote user=""]Can this example be adjusted in a way where peer manager would only work for central role (allowing for easy bonding/encryption), and peripheral role would not require bonding/encryption (not using peer manager, or using it with different parameters) ?[/quote]

I have not tested that, but I believe it should be possible

[quote user=""]Second question - which softdevice should i use for such an application when using nRF52840 IC?[/quote]

Please see the info in the SDKs and SoftDevices section.
