Hello team,

my customer is trying to add sleep function to micro_eddystone_beacon example code.

Could you please guide me on how to add simple sleep functions prefer in ms or in sec?

Thanks in advance and stay safe.

Kind regards,

Shai

Hi Shai,

If you have defined POWER_SAVING (defined by default) the device will sleep whenever it's not doing anything else.

If you want to do an action after a certain amount of time you can set up a Clock. Look at e.g. the periodic event in the simple peripheral example.

You can use Task_sleep for delay within a task thread:

// Sleep for 100ms, sys-tick for BLE-Stack is 10us,
// Task sleep is in # of ticks
Task_sleep(10000);

Examples for clocks can be found in the BLE examples.

Eirik,

Thanks for your prompt answer I'll try to use the following value for sleep one sec.


Task_sleep(100000); //sleep 1sec

BTW, I am using a BLE micro-stack based on simplelink_cc2640r2_sdk_2_30_00_28, does it make any difference?
Kind regards,
Shai

No. It is built on top of TI-RTOS and Task_sleep is a TI-RTOS kernel function.
