CC2640R2F: Long Range Advertising on BLE5

Vijay Rakesh Munganda
Expert 1150 points
Part Number: CC2640R2F

Hi,

  I need to advertise long range using BLE 5 and currently im using project zero application. I have read some documentations from  and  

 I can't find the GapInit_connect(); in my project and also I'm confused to set which parameters to set for long range advertising in  HCI_LE_SetPhyCmd( uint16 connHandle, uint8 allPhys, uint8 txPhy, uint8 rxPhy, uint16 phyOpts ); API. Please suggest me to set parameters for long range coded PHY.

Thanking you,

Vijay Rakesh

    Hi Vijay,

    The CC240R2F does not support BLE5 in the public release of SDK 1.50.xx. There is an evaluation-only release of the 1.50 SDK with support for BLE5.

    Please see www.ti.com/.../SIMPLELINK-CC2640R2-SDK

    These APIs that you refer to are part of the BLE5 Advertisement Extensions update, but the links to simplelink academy you refer to are for CC26X2 SDK and not CC2640R2.

    There is no Project Zero for SDK 1.50 that supports BLE 5 however.

    Best regards,

    Hi Vijay,

    Well if you are using SDK version 1.50.00.71 as available from the request button in the link above, then you can open simple_peripheral, and you will see that it enables both a legacy and a long-range (coded) advertisement set. Similarly for simple_central.

    See the documentation on your hard-drive here:
    C:/ti/simplelink_cc26x2_sdk_2_10_00_44/docs/ble5stack/ble_user_guide/html/ble-stack-5.x/phy.html

    Or the same-ish from the CC26x2 SDK online here: dev.ti.com/.../phy.html

    Best regards,
    Aslak
