Increase "gzp_dynamic_pairing" pairing distance

Greetings,

Is there any way to increase the pairing distance needed for the host and device to pair. The application I am developing needs static devices, if they loose connection for some reason they cannot be moved close to the host for about 1-6 hours, once they are placed. Is there any way to modify the RSSI value in order to achieve a higher pairing distance, if so how?

Thanks a lot! P.D I am using the nrf51822 DK with the pca10000 and the nrf6310 boards.

  • The pairing only needs to be done once and then they will communicate with each other as long as they keep the pairing information. Even if one of them are taken out of range and they lose the link, they will search for each other upon return in range and there's no need to bring them close to each to re-pair them. So pair once and then you can take them in and out of range as much you want without the need for re-pair.
