BLE radio notification clarification

[Alex]

Hi all,

I am currently developing a firmware on an nRF51422 which supports ANT communication with softdevice S210 and that lights up WS2812 LEDs (or Neopixels). To light the Neopixels, I use the code provided by Lava here In order for the LEDs to be lit correctly while communicating via ANT protocol, I need to use the ble_radio_notification_init and specify and callback where the command is sent to the LEDs.

I do not understand how this ble_radio_notification_init works. I looked at the doc in the Nordic Infocenter but I still do not get it. Does it make sure that the command is not interrupted by an ANT event? How does it work?

Thank you for your help

Alex,

That code is for the S110 Softdevice which can only be used as a Bluetooth LE slave. There is no ANT+ functionality in that Softdevice.

As such, that function is Bluetooth specific and will not work for your ANT+ implementation.

Can you clarify if you need both ANT+ AND Bluetooth? Which ANT+ events do you intend to have control your LEDs?
