Hi Ajit,

We do not have any examples with or without the SoftDevice that demonstrate transmitting with S=2. Also, we do not have any Bluetooth stack that supports it at the moment. The other Bluetooth stack we provide is in context of the nRF Connect SDK, but there it is also currently not possible to select S=2 (see this thread).

hi Einar

Thanks for the reply. I understood that with softdevice it is not configurable.
Is there any example(without softdevice), in which device is being configured to 125Kbps/500Kbps PHY?

Best regards,

Ajit

Hi Ajit,

This is not configurable. When using coded PHY, the SoftDevice always transmits on S=8. It seamlessly handles receiving S=2 or S=8, though.
