Bootloader Resets After Advertising ~1minute

[Lucas]

Hello,

When using the bootloader I've noticed that the booatloder resets after advertising for ~1minute. I'm try to figure out if this is intentional.

I notice that the advertising timeout is set to unlimited.

APP_ADV_TIMEOUT_IN_SECONDS           BLE_GAP_ADV_TIMEOUT_GENERAL_UNLIMITED  

Perhaps it is the APP_DIRECTED_ADV_TIMEOUT making the bootloader timeout.

#define APP_DIRECTED_ADV_TIMEOUT             50                                                       /**< number of direct advertisement (each lasting 1.28seconds). */

what is the directed_adv_timeout for is this why the bootloader resets?

@Lucas: The bootloader was designed so that in the case there is no activity on DFU it would be able to reset and then recover to application after a timeout.

It's not the advertising timeout but the DFU timer started in dfu_init() function that cause the timeout reset.
