How to set timeout duration?

[seanngpack]

I am using bluetooth to controller a stepper motor using the Accelstepper library. The problem is that running the stepper is blocking. So during a long rotation, Arduino BLE drops out. Can I set a timeout duration so this does not happen?

Hi @seanngpack ,
you are probably interested in increasing the link supervision timeout. This parameter is negotiated between central and peripheral when the connection is initialized.
Try this: #101
You can use BLE.setSuperivisionTimeout(timeoutValue), where timeoutValue can assume values between 10 and 3200. The actual timeout will be (timeoutValue * 10 ms).
