Configuring multiple Peripherals and Centrals when using nRF Connect SDK

[CktDesigner]

I'm using nRF Connect v1.5.0 and Segger Embedded Studio (SES) to develop an application I'm testing on nRF5340-DK.

I want to create a "repeater" that has at least one Central (that can connect to multiple peripherals)  and multiple peripherals (that can be connected to by external Centrals).    When using nRF5 SDK, this can be configured using NRF_SDH_BLE_CENTRAL_LINK_COUNT and NRF_SDH_BLE_PERIPHERAL_COUNT in the sdk_config.h file.

However, I don't see similar CONFIG_ statements when using nRF Connect SDK.      Is this configuration done via prj.conf, or is this performed via some call() that I haven't yet found when using nRF Connect SDK?

Thanks!

Hi

This is configured in the prj.conf file of an NCS project.

• BT_MAX_CONN is used to set the maximum number of simultaneous Bluetooth connections supported. 
• CONFIG_BT_MAX_PAIRED sets the maximum number of paired Bluetooth devices allowed.
• CONFIG_SDC_SLAVE_COUNT defines how many simultaneous connections can be created with the device working as a slave. The number of master roles is then defined as BT_MAX_CONN - SDC_SLAVE_COUNT.

Hopefully, this was helpful.

Best regards,

Simon
