Hi,

If CC2640R2 (peripheral) already has some active connections, can it do advertising at the same time?

I prefer not to use software to have some time-division to make that happen.

Thanks,

Steven

Steven,

Yes the device is capable of doing this.

Hi Even,

Thanks for the reply.

I have a CC2640R2 LaunchPad and use 'Multi-role' as an example.

Whenever I had an active connection, I could not do Advertising anymore.
The problem is the variable 'maxNumBleConns' which was initialized to 3. But, it was later set to 1 by 'linkDBNumConns' variable.
But, I could not find where the 'linkDBNumConns' is defined and set.

Any idea?

Thanks,

Steven
