Best approach to have a nRF51822 always discoverable?

[Sébastien Despont]

Dear Nordic Developer,

I am using nRF51822 with softdevice.

What is the best approach to have a nRF51822 always discoverable? Like heart monitor for example : no need to press button to discover the device and connect to it?

After spending few hours to think about that, I would see 2 possibilities :

Perhaps it exists already something to do this?

Any experiences or ideas?

Hi Sébastien,

As for as I know, timeout could be disabled by setting timeout to 0x0000. I have seen the comments in ble_gap.h::ble_gap_adv_params_t::timeout. Hope it helps.
