I am using the SDK 17.0.2 to make the advertisement and scanning for the two nrf52840 boards. One unit with extended advertisement only on channel 37 and the other unit scan on only channel 37. I am not sure whether that is correct or not, could you please help to check? If I want to do both on channel 38 only instead of channel 37, how should I change my code?
advertisement code as below
static void advertising_init(void)
{
uint32_t err_code;
ble_advdata_t advdata;
uint8_t flags = BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAG_BR_EDR_NOT_SUPPORTED;
ble_advdata_manuf_data_t manuf_specific_data;
manuf_specific_data.company_identifier = APP_COMPANY_IDENTIFIER;
#if defined(USE_UICR_FOR_MAJ_MIN_VALUES)
// If USE_UICR_FOR_MAJ_MIN_VALUES is defined, the major and minor values will be read from the
// UICR instead of using the default values. The major and minor values obtained from the UICR
// are encoded into advertising data in big endian order (MSB First).
// To set the UICR used by this example to a desired value, write to the address 0x10001080
// using the nrfjprog tool. The command to be used is as follows.
// nrfjprog --snr <Segger-chip-Serial-Number> --memwr 0x10001080 --val <your major/minor value>
// For example, for a major value and minor value of 0xabcd and 0x0102 respectively, the
// the following command should be used.
// nrfjprog --snr <Segger-chip-Serial-Number> --memwr 0x10001080 --val 0xabcd0102
