Example Configurations

BLE Advertising

static struct bt_le_adv_param adv_param = BT_LE_ADV_PARAM_INIT(
    BT_LE_ADV_OPT_CONNECTABLE | BT_LE_ADV_OPT_USE_NAME,
    BT_GAP_ADV_FAST_INT_MIN_2,
    BT_GAP_ADV_FAST_INT_MAX_2,
    NULL);

bt_le_adv_start(&adv_param, ad, ARRAY_SIZE(ad), NULL, 0);

Power Configuration (prj.conf)
