Can nRF51822 read broadcasts or advertisements from other nRF51822?

Geir Morten Wold

Hello all,

Is it possible for a nRF51822 to read information from another peripheral Device using broadcasts or advertisments?

I have an application where I need to communicate both with a central device (iPhone) and from a peripheral devices to another, maximum 10 bytes is sufficient.

I'm new to Bluetooth, and need a place to start. Greatful for any help.

Best regards Morten

    Alas, no. The current SoftDevice (S110) is a Peripheral/Broadcast only device. Pretty much any Peripheral device can do Broadcast role as it's merely a non-connectable advertisment.

    To read (scan) those advertisments, you'll need a Central/Observer role (which is where the S120 comes in).

    Hope that helps.
