Part Number: CC2640R2F

Hello,

Chip: CC2640r2f

SDK: simplelink_cc2640r2f_sdk_4_20_00_04

I would like to alternate between scanning and advertising on a fixed time interval.

I have adverting on a fixed interval working using the SimplePeripheral Project.

I have scanning on fixed intervals working using the SimpleCentral Project

I've spent sometime trying to add the "other" feature to each project and haven't had much success. Adding scanning to SimplePeripheral, I have a project that will load ontop the chip but GapScan_enable return 0x12 which I believe means there's something wrong with my configuration. I plan on digging into this more today but wanted to throw the question out there while I triple check my setup.

Is there a better starting point that would get me scanning and advertising in the same project?

This should be possible to scan and advertise within the same project correct?

Any info or insight is appreciated.

After learning about Multirole as and option I noticed other posts that talk about BLE5 Multirole and CC2640r2f don't mic (not enough memory).

I've started looking into BLE4.2 Multirole, starting with the Resource Explorer blestack->multirole example.

I'm marking this resolved because ble4.2 looks like the solution.

Hello Rick,

The multi_role example implements scanning and advertising within a single project. I believe this example would be the perfect starting point for your application.

Best Regards,

Jan
