maximum amount of data can be sent through ble_lbs service

[manikandan]

hello,

 i am using nrf52832 with our customized board and i am trying to send 427 characters string at a time using lbs service but it only accepts 200 characters in single time is there any way to send a 427 character string in single time

//i have changed my lbs c file like this

uint32_t ble_lbs_init(ble_lbs_t * p_lbs, const ble_lbs_init_t * p_lbs_init)
{
uint32_t err_code;
ble_uuid_t ble_uuid;
ble_add_char_params_t add_char_params;

// Initialize service structure.
p_lbs->led_write_handler = p_lbs_init->led_write_handler;
p_lbs->button_write = p_lbs_init->button_write_handler;

// Add service.
ble_uuid128_t base_uuid = {LBS_UUID_BASE};
err_code = sd_ble_uuid_vs_add(&base_uuid, &p_lbs->uuid_type);
VERIFY_SUCCESS(err_code);

ble_uuid.type = p_lbs->uuid_type;
ble_uuid.uuid = LBS_UUID_SERVICE;

err_code = sd_ble_gatts_service_add(BLE_GATTS_SRVC_TYPE_PRIMARY, &ble_uuid, &p_lbs->service_handle);
VERIFY_SUCCESS(err_code);

// Add Button characteristic.
memset(&add_char_params, 0, sizeof(add_char_params));
add_char_params.uuid = LBS_UUID_BUTTON_CHAR;
add_char_params.uuid_type = p_lbs->uuid_type;
add_char_params.init_len = sizeof(uint8_t);

add_char_params.max_len = sizeof(uint8_t)*247;
add_char_params.is_var_len = true;
// add_char_params.char_props.read = 1;
add_char_params.char_props.notify = 1;
add_char_params.char_props.indicate = 1;
// add_char_params.char_props.write = 1;
// add_char_params.read_access = SEC_OPEN;
add_char_params.cccd_write_access = SEC_OPEN;

err_code = characteristic_add(p_lbs->service_handle,
&add_char_params,
&p_lbs->button_char_handles);
if (err_code != NRF_SUCCESS)
{
return err_code;
}

// Add LED characteristic.
memset(&add_char_params, 0, sizeof(add_char_params));
add_char_params.uuid = LBS_UUID_LED_CHAR;
add_char_params.uuid_type = p_lbs->uuid_type;
add_char_params.init_len = sizeof(uint8_t);
add_char_params.max_len = sizeof(uint8_t)*247;
add_char_params.is_var_len = true;
add_char_params.char_props.read = 1;
add_char_params.char_props.write = 1;
// add_char_params.char_props.notify = 1;
add_char_params.read_access = SEC_OPEN;
add_char_params.write_access = SEC_OPEN;
// add_char_params.cccd_write_access = SEC_OPEN;

return characteristic_add(p_lbs->service_handle, &add_char_params, &p_lbs->led_char_handles);
}

Hi,

Did you mean that you want to send 247 bytes (as your configs seems to indicate), or 427 as you wrote in the description?

Have you verified that the MTU size is updated to the requested value, and accepted by both sides of the link? Do you have any logs from the devices and a sniffer trace of the on-air communications?

Best regards,
Jørgen

Which function call is on line 1118 of main.c in your application?

hello,

i am stopping my adv

err_code = sd_ble_gap_adv_stop(m_adv_handle); //stop advertising
APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

thanks and regards
