DFU and bonding

Hello,

i want to implement DFU with the S130. The problem is, that I currently do not use the device manager because I need both Central and Peripheral connections at the same time, which I manage myself. I can therefore not use the device manager. I want multiple devices to use the same encryption key because they will all be in a single network that is encrypted with a network key. Where do I start? Will the device manager be ready for the S130 in short time or will this take a while? Will I have to modify the DFU process to work without device manager? I hope you can give me a timeframe that allows me to plan wether to implement everything myself or wait for an official SDK update.

Thanks, Marius

  • @Marius Heil: The DFU for S130 in the nRF51 SDK doesn't use device manager.

    Could you elaborate more on how you plan to use the same encryption key for all device in the network ? This is not defined in the Bluetooth spec. I assume that you will do your own proprietary encryption. If it's the case, you would need to implement your encryption method in the bootloader.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "wait for an official SDK update" . Which update you are looking for ?
