How to start CC26XX based remote controller with BLE stack.

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2640

Hello,

I wanted to implement simple, custom remote controller, based on CC2640 and 5XD chip version. I downloaded CCS, followed a few tutorials but I'm not even close to start. I tried to look at code of a few examples but they do not corresponds to my needs. Hence I would like to ask for some hints and ask some questions.

  1. I use SmartRF06 Evaluation board together with CC2650EM-7ID but production device will be based on CC2640-5XD. Am I right that my app should work on both without any problems?
  2. Is it possible to sniff packets? Seems like BLE device monitor doesn't work with SmartRF06
  3. My controller will be used only by my device, so am I right that I can ommit "Setup he GAP Bond Manager" code from examples? Additionally should I use GAP_ADTYPE_128BIT_MORE as UUID in advertData? I don't need any security and so on, controller doesn't need to work with any other device.
  4. My controller will have 2 services one for sharing battery level, one to inform about state of keys. Can I directly copy and use battery service from heart rate example?
  5. Am I right that It is not possible to have my application source out of TI examples installation directory?
  6. Am I right that officially recommended way to create an application is to modify examples shipped with SDK?
  7. Is there any tutorial showing how to make remote controller based on cc26xx?

Thank you in advance for any help.
