Please try to read the Bluetooth Core Specification first. Vol. 3, Part C, Section 15.1 has information about Bluetooth Device Address. Then search in Nordic Developer Zone for similar questions. If you still can't understand, add a new separate question with the part you don't understand.

or Private_Resolvable Type?

Thank you

There is a lack of space, such as sending a UUID, and Major, Minor values and the values of temperature and remaining battery power.

So, try to identify the device as Device Address.

And I have to make plans to sell the product.

If I create a product to sell, what does the use of both Public and Private Non-Resolvable?

Yes. There are three types of addresses:

/**@defgroup BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPES GAP Address types
 * @{ */
#define BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_PUBLIC                        0x00 /**< Public address. */
#define BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM_STATIC                 0x01 /**< Random Static address. */
#define BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM_PRIVATE_RESOLVABLE     0x02 /**< Private Resolvable address. */
#define BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM_PRIVATE_NON_RESOLVABLE 0x03 /**< Private Non-Resolvable address. */
/**@} */

Our examples use BLE_GAP_ADDR_TYPE_RANDOM_STATIC, but you can set the address using sd_ble_gap_address_set(). And then you can set the same address to multiple devices. I don't know how TI does it.

Sorry, but One more question I will.

If it was, if possible, Are there any cases Nordic products and other products (Ti, etc.) are having the same address each other?

Yes, you can.

That there is a different and unique Device Address for each device.

If so, can i separate the device only Device Address?

(without UUID, Major, Minor value)

Please see this question for information about Bluetooth Device Address.

device address? If so, where can I find information about the Device Address? UICR_ADDRESS, are you saying this? Address is it different for each device?

nRF Master Control Panel uses the device address to distinguish between devices, but the device address is not part of ble_advdata_t.

How Master Control Panel find each the device?

if Two device send the same packet, they are recognized as the same device?

RE: Beacon Service+Info, How can I use both data?

Petter Myhre — Fri, 24 Apr 2015 08:44:06 GMT

The nRF Master Control Panel will find your device regardless of what data that is in your advertising packet.

RE: Beacon Service+Info, How can I use both data?

GunMin — Fri, 24 Apr 2015 04:00:07 GMT

Thank you, if manufacture data are replaced by other data, why Master Control Panel APP can be found the device?

RE: Beacon Service+Info, How can I use both data?

Petter Myhre — Wed, 22 Apr 2015 14:00:04 GMT

Sorry if I misunderstand, but if you call ble_advdata_set() with new data the old data will not be updated, it will be replaced.

As the source at the top, ADC_Init function is used once, advdata is initiated by the AD update function, and if the services continue to update, what initially UUID, Major, Minor value set in AD_Init is valid?

RE: Beacon Service+Info, How can I use both data?

Petter Myhre — Wed, 22 Apr 2015 08:35:18 GMT

Please remember that the amount of data you can include in an advertising packet is limited, see this for more information.

Have you tried to set a breakpoint to check if you get any error code from ble_advdata_set()? Remember to set optimizations to Level 0. You can also use the debugger to check the content and the length of advdata.

And In this case, Not detected in the beacon applications.

And does not operate to put the three services.

advertising init function is operating, adv data update function to operate until the beacon is a search application. However, if the operation is advdata_update function not detected in the beacon applications.
