Bluetooth LE Console for NUS

[Vojislav]

I connected my device over BLE with the computer and currently using Bluetooth LE Console from Nordic. The Console is receiving data and that is good, but I do not know how to send multiple characters at once. It is only sending one or 2 char at a time. Does anyone have more experience with this?

I am using Ubuntu with NCS 1.5.0

Best regards,

Hi Håkon,

Thanks for the answer, it would be great to have this feature working natively without external components. 

In the meantime, I will try shell_bt_nus.py with the external board. About that:
* will it work with the nrf52840 dongle or I need to use the dev kit with Jlink?

Best regards,

You'll need a device that is capable of running the connectivity firmware (precompiled found in the release: https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/pc-ble-driver/releases), found in path:

/nrf-ble-driver-4.1.4-win_x86_64/share/nrf-ble-driver/hex/sd_api_v5/

 

there's a dfu package there, but I haven't tried this in combination with the shell_bt_nus myself.

Note that this script is old, and I had a more stable operation with "sd_api_v3" at my end, but this might not be required on your end. Just mentioning it as a side-note.

 

Kind regards,

Håkon
