Hi Kenneth,

That should work for me but could please provide a confirmation on this:-

Hi,

You can stop and start advertisement as you best see fit at any time. So that should not be any problem no.

Best regards,
Kenneth

Hi Kenneth,

Thanks for the reply. I need the advertising with the whitelist option so I can't disable it. Even if the APP_ADV_FAST_DURATION is reduced there is a slow advertising with whitelist mode(BLE_ADV_EVT_SLOW-WHITELIST) which can't be disabled separately. Ideally, if it is possible to set a different duration for the slow/fast whitelist advertising and normal slow/fast advertising that would be better(is it possible?).

If it is not possible, will there be any problem if I call ble_advertising_restart_without_whitelist() in the BLE_ADV_EVT_FAST_WHITELIST event callback(by keeping the fast advertising interval low and a high slow advertising duration).

Hi,

If you want to advertise without white list you can simply call ble_advertising_restart_without_whitelist(), or when you start advertisement you simply set:

init.config.ble_adv_whitelist_enabled = false;

Also make sure to set:

init.config.ble_adv_directed_enabled = false;

If you don't want to use any of the above, then the last option likely is to reduce APP_ADV_FAST_DURATION and increase APP_ADV_SLOW_DURATION.

Best regards,
Kenneth
