how to make ble_app_rscs_c as coded phy

[manikandan]

hello,

i am using nrf52840 with our cutomised board and trying to achieve long range using coded phy and using that long range demo example as base i have sucessfully changed ble peripheral example to phy coded my device is advertising with extension properly and i am trying to do the same with ble_app_rscs_c example for central but in this example api calls are different

ret = sd_ble_gap_scan_start(&m_scan_params, &m_scan_buffer);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(ret); instead of using this that example using this for scan app_rscs_example uses this

err_code = nrf_ble_scan_start(&m_scan);
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

what i did i haved the scanning params as they did in central_long_demo but that did nt worked what are the other changes should i do to make that example phy coded

thanks and regards

Hi

This is the main.c file of a tweaked ble_app_uart_c central example. Please refer to the scan_init() and related functions to make sure your central is scanning in the Coded PHY.
