LAUNCHXL-CC1352P: Simple Peripheral enable white list with GapAdv_setParam() doesn't work

I will assigned someone to look into this. In the meantime, please provide information regarding what SDK you are using.

I'm using the SDK SimpleLink CC13x2 26x2 Version 5.20.0.52.

Hi Thomas,

0x02 is not a valid return for GapAdv_setParam(). Did you mean 0x12 bleIncorrectMode?

Advertising must be disable to change parameters, this is why the GapAdv_setParam() fails with the incorrect mode fail status.

Can you try disabling advertising before changing the filter policy? 

Cheers,

Marie H.

Hi Marie,

I checked it again with the debugger, the return value is 0x02.

In all cases, I first call GapAdv_disable().

Then, after the event GAP_EVT_ADV_END_AFTER_DISABLE is send, I call GapAdv_setPAram().

Hi Thomas,

I would like to try to reproduce. Can you post all of the ADV parameters you use?

Cheers,

Marie H.

Hi Marie,

This is the code which I use for initial settings of the Adv:

// All the values for advParams1 are generated from SysConfig
GapAdv_params_t advParams1 = {
    .eventProps =   GAP_ADV_PROP_CONNECTABLE | GAP_ADV_PROP_LEGACY | GAP_ADV_PROP_SCANNABLE,
    .primIntMin =   160,
    .primIntMax =   160,
    .primChanMap =  GAP_ADV_CHAN_ALL,
    .peerAddrType = PEER_ADDRTYPE_PUBLIC_OR_PUBLIC_ID,
    .peerAddr =     { 0xaa, 0xaa, 0xaa, 0xaa, 0xaa, 0xaa },
    .filterPolicy = GAP_ADV_WL_POLICY_ANY_REQ,
    .txPower =      GAP_ADV_TX_POWER_NO_PREFERENCE,
    .primPhy =      GAP_ADV_PRIM_PHY_1_MBPS,
    .secPhy =       GAP_ADV_SEC_PHY_1_MBPS,
    .sid =          0
};


//When the GAP_DEVICE_INIT_DONE_EVENT is send, I use this code to create the Adv:

status = GapAdv_create(&bleDisplay_advCallback, &advParams1, &advHandleLegacy);
REMOTEDISPLAY_ASSERT(status == SUCCESS);

status = GapAdv_loadByHandle(advHandleLegacy, GAP_ADV_DATA_TYPE_ADV, sizeof(advData1), advData1);
REMOTEDISPLAY_ASSERT(status == SUCCESS);

status = GapAdv_loadByHandle(advHandleLegacy, GAP_ADV_DATA_TYPE_SCAN_RSP, sizeof(scanResData1), scanResData1);
REMOTEDISPLAY_ASSERT(status == SUCCESS);

status = GapAdv_setEventMask(advHandleLegacy,
                                     GAP_ADV_EVT_MASK_START_AFTER_ENABLE |
                                     GAP_ADV_EVT_MASK_END_AFTER_DISABLE |
                                     GAP_ADV_EVT_MASK_SET_TERMINATED);
REMOTEDISPLAY_ASSERT(status == SUCCESS);

// *******************************
// ******** This call returns 2 for status
status = GapAdv_setParam(advHandleLegacy, GAP_ADV_PARAM_FILTER_POLICY, GAP_ADV_WL_POLICY_WL_ALL_REQ);
REMOTEDISPLAY_ASSERT(status == SUCCESS);

// *******************************
// ******** This will not be executed, because status is 2 from previous function call
status = GapAdv_enable(advHandleLegacy, GAP_ADV_ENABLE_OPTIONS_USE_MAX , 0);
REMOTEDISPLAY_ASSERT(status == SUCCESS);

Hi Thomas,

I am able to reproduce what you are seeing. I have filed a bug ticket.

It seems you already found a work-around.

Cheers,

Marie H.

Hi Marie,

the workaround to set advParams1.filterPolicy directly works only before the GapAdv_create() is called.
After that call, the changes in advParams1 are ignored.

When I press my button, I have to change the filterPolicy from GAP_ADV_WL_POLICY_WL_ALL_REQ to GAP_ADV_WL_POLICY_ANY_REQ
and after 20 seconds change it back to GAP_ADV_WL_POLICY_WL_ALL_REQ.

How can I do this?

Regards

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

I'll let you know when I hear back regarding the bug ticket. In the mean while, I have two suggestions for work around:

1) Define two different advertising sets, one with WL and one without. Alternate between enabling these two.

2) Use GapAdv_create and GapAdv_destroy APIs to reset all parameters when you need to change between using WL and not.

I would recommend 1).

Cheers,

Marie H.
