 I&amp;#39;m developing multiprotocol application by combining BLE and a proprietary protocol by using timeslots. In my project I need to disable BLE for one hour and use only our proprietary protocol than return again to a initial state</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 08 Jul 2015 06:40:04 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/7979/concurrent-protocols-and-disableing-bluetooth" /><item><title>RE: Concurrent protocols and disableing Bluetooth</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/28591?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 08 Jul 2015 06:40:04 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:21c22230-58c9-453d-8e64-2066c7e429e7</guid><dc:creator>chinargor</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank you very much Hung Bue for your help. Your advice was really very helpful. Currently I&amp;#39;m trying out your both suggestions.

The only thing may runs when you enable softdevice and use timeslot is the RTC timer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you want to eliminiate that you can try to not to use timeslot at the period when you don&amp;#39;t use BLE (because if you disable softdevice, timeslot won&amp;#39;t work). So you would need to set a flag, and when you are in the non-concurent mode, you just use the radio directly without any timeslot.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
