CC2340R5: Extended Advertise on TI simple link connect App

Part Number: CC2340R5
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SYSCONFIG

Tool/software:

Hi,

We are currently developing a BLE-based application using the CC2340R5 and require the OAD feature for firmware updates. We initially assumed that the TI mobile application could be used for this purpose, but we encountered an issue where extended advertisements are not visible on the TI SimpleLink Connect app. As a result, we are unable to view any advertisements or perform firmware updates in extended advertising mode.

However, we are able to see extended advertisements using Nordic's nRF Connect app, though firmware updates are still not possible through it.

Could you please clarify whether the TI SimpleLink Connect app supports extended advertisements? Additionally, what steps should we follow to successfully update the firmware in extended advertising mode?

Regards,

Jay.


currently using:

TI simple link connect app current version :  1.3.7
Nordic's nRF Connect app current version  : 4.28.1

example using : basic_ble_oad_dual_image_LP_EM_CC2340R5_freertos_ticlang (modified for extended adv.)

    Hello Jay,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    You should be able to see the extended advertising  on the Simple Link connect as well. I think this is a matter of what PHY is used by the phone for the secondary PHY.

    You can modify this through SysConfig -> BLE -> Advertisement Set - Advertisement Parameters:

    Hello Jay,

    I am able to see the 2M PHY extended adv in both apps: SimpleLink and NRF using an iphone 15 (IOs 17.2)

    Are you using SDK version 8.10?

    This is the configuration I used:

    Hello Jay,

    I will try with an Android phone and get back to you. It could be there are some dependencies between the application/phone/OS that I am not aware here and is difficult to tell.

    Hello Jay,

    I have tested with an Android and iOS device together and this are the results:

    1. Android: cannot see Extended Adv on SimpleLink but can on NRF.
    2. IOS: can see Extended Adv on both applications.

    I will try with a newer Android phone and I will ask the Simple Link application owners about this.

    BR,

    David.

    Hello Jay,

    I haven't been able to see the extended adv on the Android phone. In the meantime would it be possible to use our internal tool (<SDK>\tools\ble5stack\btool) to scan and perform OAD? You would have to flash the host_test_app.hex (<SDK>\examples\rtos\LP_EM_CC2340R5\ble5stack\hexfiles) into another board to act like central and then scan for the peripheral device.

    BR,

    David.
