BLE Periodic Sync Example
(See the README.md file in the upper level 'examples' directory for more information about examples.)
This example performs passive scan for non-connectable non-scannable extended advertisement, it then establishes the periodic sync with the advertiser and then listens to the periodic advertisements.
It uses ESP32C3's Bluetooth controller and NimBLE stack based BLE host.
This example aims at understanding BLE periodic sync establishment and periodic advertisement reports.
To test this demo, use any periodic advertiser with uses extended adv data as "ESP_PERIODIC_ADV".
Note :
- Make sure to run
python -m pip install --user -r $IDF_PATH/requirements.txt -r $IDF_PATH/tools/ble/requirements.txt
to install the dependency packages needed. - Currently this Python utility is only supported on Linux (BLE communication is via BLuez + DBus).
How to Use Example
Before project configuration and build, be sure to set the correct chip target using:
idf.py set-target <chip_name>
Hardware Required
- A development board with ESP32/ESP32-C3 SoC (e.g., ESP32-DevKitC, ESP-WROVER-KIT, etc.)
- A USB cable for Power supply and programming
See Development Boards for more information about it.
Configure the Project
Open the project configuration menu:
idf.py menuconfig
In the Example Configuration
menu:
- Change the
Peer Address
option if needed.
Build and Flash
Run idf.py -p PORT flash monitor
to build, flash and monitor the project.
(To exit the serial monitor, type Ctrl-]
.)
See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
