 I know that there are different ways to set up the radio, but generally speaking, is there a general practice for how commercial devices&amp;#39; PHYs are set up when advertising? If not, what are most BLE devices set to? 125/1M/2M, etc?

It is a&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;very&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;powerful tool when developing BLE applications.&lt;br /&gt;As for your question of which PHY is most common I would guess 1M is most widely used today, given how new the 2M is, and the generality of 1M over 125. But this is just by my own estimation, I do not have this empirically.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;Karl&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
