Hello ! Nice demo !

Is it possible to have access to the source code?

Thanks in advance

Hi, The BLE stack for nRF52840 with long range mode (125kbps) has been developed ?

Hello, Can you please share me the source code for long range nRF52840 15.3.0

Is the source code from the C#/.NET application and the source code from the Rx and Tx available? I would like to reproduce the RSSI test and log the RSSI values.

Is the source code for the demo available? I have IAR, but anything would do.

The production files for the display shield can be found here:
PCA63520-Memory LCD shield for nRF51-DK 1_2_0.zip

This include the schematic and the layout.

Best regards

Hello,

Can you shar the source code for this example ? I'm only interested in measuring the RSSI.

The RTT Viewer is a part of the J-Link Software and Documentation Pack install, which is required to use our devkits.

The display shield is not currently available, it was originally developed for internal use only. I will check if we can either start production of the display, or make the production files available if someone else wants to manufacture them.

When you refer to the display shield, "The DK on the receiving end also had a display shield developed here at Nordic and was connected to a computer." What is the display shield and how can that be replicated? Is it a product or software? Additionally, I have the same questions about the RTT Viewer, "Connect the RTT viewer to the receiver (prx) kit." Where can that be found?

I am wanting to reproduce this demo and outside of the parts listed (the nRF52840 chip and the GPS module) I believe these are the only two missing pieces and they are responsible for interpreting the data. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Hello, Is it possible to have access to the source code of this demo? I would like to test both 125kbits and 2Mbits mode with one appplication code.

Thank you

So technically with a bitrate of 125Kbps, you are telling me we can use nRF52840 boards can advertise packets up to a range of 800x4 i.e 3200 meters? This can be used for beacon applications as well? Also what about the scanning range?

Technically, ESB was actually not used, since the radio was set in BLE long range mode. The radio was configured directly without SoftDevice. I updated the blogpost to be more correct.

ESB was used simply because the BLE stack for nRF52840 with long range mode (125kbps) was not developed at the time we where doing the test.

The application was developed in C#/.NET. Actually uart was used to transfer the data to the computer in the demo. I changed to RTT in the files I shared here.

Thank you for the extra details, looking forward to an even longer range test. Two questions:

Why did you use ESB instead of BLE connection or BLE advertising? Any pros & cons?
What did you use to develop the desktop application that showed the parameters received by RTT? (language/ide...?)
