BlueNRG multislaves?

HI,

I'm developing a device based on the BlueNRG.

In my project I need to work with multiple slaves, ie the BlueNRF is in the CENTRAL mode. I use bluenrg_6_3 image (MODE 3)

Now I have the following problem:

1. if I use the command ''HCI_LE_SET_SCAN_ENABLE'' (for scanning addresses and names), after connecting at least one slave, stop coming SCAN RESPONSES. And I can not find and connect to the remaining devices.

2. When I use the command ''aci_gap_start_general_discovery_proc'' to search for new devices, 10 seconds after the command, connected slaves are disconnected.

This is log of BlueNRG v1.5.0

11:50:39.471 BLUEHCI_GAP_CREATE_CONNECTION

11:50:39.486 HCI_COMMAND_STATUS

11:50:39.667 EVT_BLUE_GAP_PROCEDURE_COMPLETE

11:50:39.671 HCI_LE_META

11:51:43.497 BLUEHCI_GAP_START_GEN_DISC_PROC

11:51:43.513 HCI_COMMAND_STATUS

11:51:43.569 EVT_BLUE_GAP_DEVICE_FOUND

11:51:53.713 EVT_BLUE_GAP_PROCEDURE_COMPLETE

11:51:53.862 HCI_DISCONNECTION_COMPLETE

How can I scan and connect to multiple slaves?

Regards.

Softwire engineer, Andrei Kekenov

Hi, Graziella

aci_gap_create_connection(0x4000, 0x4000, PUBLIC_ADDR, _test_addr, PUBLIC_ADDR, 0x06, 0x28, 0x00, 0x10, 0x00 , 0x03E8);

Regards.

Hi Andrei,

in order to connect a master with more slaves, you must set the parameter Conn_Interval_Min with a value greater than 0x06. For example, if you set the Conn_Interval_Min to 0x0020, you can connect until 5 slaves.

Hello,

I'm having similar problems with discovering after one slave is connected to master... I also tried to set Conn_Interval_Min to 0x0020 as you proposed to Andrei. But I can't find master with any other slave... should master send some special command?

In attachment are history of commands send via bluenrg gui app for master and slave; one scope file with LE and advertising, at other two files I set master discoverable via GAP, but no success.

Thanks for any advice.

BR

Matej

Problem solved.

After create_connection command it's

necessary

to set scan parameters and enable scanning.

Hi Matej,

sure...after each connection you have to set scan parameters and enable scanning.
