BLE-STACK: BLE Advertisement Payload (31 bytes on the primary channels)

Sanjay Jayadev

Part Number: BLE-STACK

Hello,

Can I change the contents of the payload for each new advertisement .

For example : I transmit a ibeacon packet on channel 37,38,39. Then the next advertising is a custom packet on channel 37,38,39.

I want to keep alternating between these two packets. I’ve posted the same on the e2e forum and would be glad if you can share your thoughts on the same.

Will the protocol stack allow me to do the same.

If not could you suggest alternatives to this.

Kindly let me know.

Thanks

Just to elaborate what I'm trying to do, if there are two advertising data sets A1 and A2.
I want to transmit A1 every second and after 10 seconds transmit A2, then switch back to sending A1

Yes, it can be done.

In our SimpleLink Academy: Scanning and Advertising section, we have include how to change the advertising payload by using a software timer.

Please go to the following link to see the detail.
