2 way beacon/connectable beacon

[N A Karmarkar]

Hello,

DK:nrf52810

sdk:17.0.2

In my project i have to advertise accelerometer and gyro value through beacon so i have done with using
https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/76400/nrf52-ble-beacon-with-accelerometer-data-advertising this support.

Now my question is,
Is it possible to send some values from "mobile apk" to "the device" using connectable beacon ..?? (2 way communication)

mobile apk: nrf connect

the device: nrf52810 custom board

If it is possible plz send me the proper procedure

Regards,
Nagendra A Karmarkar

Hello,

What @awneil says is correct - this would not be a beacon application per se, since beacons advertise as non-connectable.
If you wish to see an example of how data transfer from a peripheral to a central could be implemented you should take a look at the BLE Nordic UART example from the SDK. In the example, any data received over UART is transmitted to the connected device over BLE, and visa versa.
You can then modify this to instead relay your sensor data, instead of the UART data.

Best regards,
Karl

Hello,

thank you for your reply

in my application i need to do 2 operation

1) advertising sensor data with continues updated value without connection (sensor value will change continuously ) 

2) when it requires i need to connect the device.

so, if uart example is the solution for my problem, Please let me know how the advertising the data in it without connection 

if u sent any example it would be useful for me thank you in advance

Hello Nagendra a karmarkar,

2) when it requires i need to connect the device.

The difference between performance of beacons and connectable peripheral devices is primarily the difference in power consumption (aside from the obvious other feature differences). When advertising as non-connectable the peripheral does not need to listen for incoming connect requests after every advertisements. Please see the Online Power Profiler for more in-depth information about the difference in power consumption.

Please see this blogpost and included example for a demonstration how you may use the BLE advertising library to update your advertising data dynamically. You may then merge this functionality into the UART BLE example, for instance.

Best regards,

Hello, 

thank you for your reply
so the example file i built and executed properly...

but i tried this example with ble_app_uart so its not working..

can you guide me what are the changes need to be done with ble_app_uart example to advertise in it.??

note: in that application uart data tx and rx also should work as well as should advertise 128 bit data

What, exactly, is "not working" ?

What debugging have you done to find the problem(s) ?

advertising not happend

So, again, what debugging have you done to find why the advertising has "not happened" ?

Hello,

i have created new service in that program

so now both advertising and connectable service satisfied..!!
