CAF Sensor Manager - Dynamic Sampling Period

[napei_]

Hi,

Just wondering if it's possible, or there is a reliable way to dynamically change the sampling period of the CAF sensor manager module. Specifically the values defined per-sensor under sampling_period_ms. If not, is there a good way to achieve this? For clarity's sake I am using an nrf9160-SICA-B1 with I2C sensors (BME280, MCP9808, VEML7700, LIS2DH and MCP9600).

Use case is remote configuration of a device to report specific sensor readings every x seconds/minutes/hours based on changing requirements per device deployment (i.e. can't be hardcoded), with multiple onboard sensors having different reporting rates.

Thanks

Hello,

Sorry for the delay. I will need some more time to research that and will come back to you as soon as I can.

Best regards,

No worries.

Hello again,

So the answer is unfortunately no, it is currently not possible to dynamically change the period, but we have now added it as a feature request for NCS 2.2.0.

Best regards,

Michal

Thanks Michal, looking forward to its potential integration in future versions.
