BLE disconnection - NRF_ERROR_RESOURCES

[Roei]

Hi,

I'm using nrf52840 to connect a mobile device via BLE.

I've noticed that when a lot of messages are sent, a disconnection occurs with reason code of NRF_ERROR_RESOURCES.

Can you please help me?

Thanks!

Hi,

NRF_ERROR_RESOURCES simply means that the softdevice have already buffered all notification in can hold, so you need to wait until BLE_GATTS_EVT_HVN_TX_COMPLETE event and retry.

Best regards,

Hi,

Just to clarify - NRF_ERROR_RESOURCES is received as an error code for disconnections. Do you think I need to try waiting for BLE_GATTS_EVT_HVN_TX_COMPLETE?

Thanks!

If the link have disconnected, then simply ignore the error code, and wait until next connection seems like a reasonable solution.

Sorry, I'm not sure I understand.

How can I prevent the disconnection? Can I increase buffer size?

Thanks

Re-reading the case I think I may have misunderstood.

Can you tell me the disconnect reason on BLE_GAP_EVT_DISCONNECTED event?

It should be possible to read this by:
p_ble_evt->evt.gap_evt.params.disconnected.reason

The available disconnect reasons are listed in ble_hci.h, there is no disconnect reason NRF_ERROR_RESOURCES.
