Outputting NRF CONNECT SDK Logger Data

Hello, I am new to firmware development and I am trying to stream heart rate data from an nrf32840 DK to an nrf32480 dongle and output that data. I am able to successfully stream the data to the nrf connect sdk, but I would like to plot the data in real time with a serial plotter, such as that provided by arduino. Since the nrf connect sdk makes use of the dongle's COM port, I am trying to find a way to access that data in real time. How can I go about outputting the characteristic data to a serial port?

  • Hello,

    Thank you for your response. I managed to route the data to a commercial bluetooth adaptor and used MATLAB's BLE library to process and output the data. However, when adding custom services, I was getting memory errors, that the the chip did not have enough memory to add the custom service.

    I transferred the code to the base BLE example template and I have gotten the custom services to work, however now the DK is unable to connect to commercial bluetooth devices and can only connect to the dongle. From the dongle I can access all of the data I am outputting but I have now run into the same issue as before of being unable to output the data in real time.

    The dongle itself takes up a COM port which I can access in Arduino, however the COM port becomes unusable in Arduino when using the nRF Connect software to connect the dongle to the Development Kit. Is there some way to connect the dongle and the development kit without using the nRF Connect SDK? Is there a way to have the dongle recognize the device without having to program the dongle itself?

    Thank you
