How to connect to a Windows 8 PC

Hello,

I`ve got a working S120 peripheral BLE device with custom services and characteristics. I am able to connect and bond with iOS and Android. But I cannot connect to Windows7 / Windows8. The device will not be visible in the windows device API. I did some research with some other BLE devices (custom raspberryPI as BLE device). There I get a working connection by the windows device API.

I found this other DevZone topic regarding Windows8 connection: link text

But when I change the

m_sec_params.kdist_periph.enc = 1; m_sec_params.kdist_periph.id = 1; m_sec_params.kdist_periph.sign = 0;

parameters as suggested, I can not bond my device to Android or iOS any more...!? Do you guys have any idea? Where is my mistake?

Regards, BTprogrammer

  • Can you see the device advertising on Windows at all? Is it just so that you can't pair with it? If so I had the same problem. Implementing a device manager helped. There's an example showing how it's done.

  • Hi, I only tried do add the device_manager module with the KEIL library manager. There it says deny nRF_SoftDevices:s120... I`m using the S120 softdevice as an peripheral. So will it work with device_manager_central.c?

    Is the device manager the solution for the Windows connection problem?
