Sparkfun nfr52832 breadboard BLE issue

Hi.

I want to scan and get all bluetooth devices in range and measure rssi. I am using Arduino bootloader but I am reading the ble peripheral library but I don’t understand how to scan for bluetooth devices and get rssi and if it is possible using this board.

That would be a question specific to the hardware and Nordic Semiconductor. I would recommend reaching out to their support to see if this is a feature that is possible. https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/

Hi brandon.

I added this issue in nordic forum but the técnical support he said me that they do not support arduino, they support using kail but if is possible to make a bluetooth scan and get RSSI. but, I am using the arduino compatibility using in this guide https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/nr … okup-guide

but it does not have an example to scan bluetooth and get RSSI similar with other boards as ESP32. Can you help me please if with arduino is not possible to get this information to determinate if I use other board?.

Thanks so much.

Unfortunately, it does not appear to have RSSI capabilities with the current Arduino software that we use in the guide. You can try to find other compatible libraries that might have this capability or look for another board. Alternatively, you could give the Adafruit libraries a try but I can’t guarantee full compatibility.

We will, in the near future, be rolling out BLE support for our Artemis modules and they will be capable of running an RSSI example for future reference.
