nRF Sniffer for 802.15.4 based on nRF52840 with Wireshark: What does the blue led signfify?

Jan_Erik

I am using the 802.15.4 sniffer to troubleshoot the development of an openthread  application based on the nrf connect sdk. The sniffer has a green led that flashes steadily and a blue led that lights up irregularly. I assume the green led is just to indicate that the sniffer is running. What does the blue led signify?  

Thank you,
Jan Erik

    Hi again

    Sorry, I was a bit too quick on the draw regarding the Dongle. The blue LED blinks on the Dongle when a packet is received on the channel it is scanning on. I just tested this on my end to make sure, and had one device transmitting while the Dongle was sniffing. The blue LED will only blink whenever receiving a packet, so if the transmitting device is turned off, the Dongle won't blink blue at all.

    Best regards,

    Simon
