nRF52840 long range demo

[Hydro]

Hello,

I have see this demo

.hex are available witch is already nice, but I would like to get everything needed to reproduce it. Does someone know if it's possible to get the client application, the GPS cabling schema and the source code deployed on the nRF52840 Preview DK ?

Thank you,

Hydro

Hi

The long range demo was not using the BLE SoftDevice, since it didn't support the long range mode at the time.
Instead it was using a very simple proprietary protocol, similar to the ESB protocol.

I am currently looking into the long range API of the latest S140 SoftDevice, and hope to have a simple example ready next week based on ble_app_uart.

If you need something today it is also possible to modify the ble_app_att_mtu_throughput example in SDK v14.2.0 to use the S140 v6.0.0-6.alpha SoftDevice.

Update: The example is ready, and available on the playground:

Hello, Thanks for the answer, I will try to modify the ble_app_att_mtu_throughput, but can you keep me informed once you have done the simple example ? It's always great to have a simple example ;)

Kind regards
