Soft device error

[Paul Mercer]

Hi,

I am in the process of evaluating the nRF52840 and have the Nordic nRF82840 DK development board.

I am using the Segger Embedded Studio for evaluation.

The following examples are being used:-

GitHub - NordicPlayground/nrf52-ble-app-uart-long-range

The project compile after some interaction with Segger Tech support, but not running correctly.

I have put the board into debug mode, and get the following the attached error.Softdevice error.pdf

Segger are saying this is a Nordic issue and not compiler.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Best Regards

Paul

Hi Paul

First off, if you're evaluating a new product, we would recommend checking out the nRF Connect SDK which is our newer SDK, where new features and bug fixes can be expected. The nRF5 SDK you're using is currently in maintenance mode. More details in our nRF Connect SDK statement here.

As for the error you're seeing, your application hasn't had enough RAM allocated to the SoftDevice, so you should allocate the correct amount of RAM/Flash according to what SDK version and SoftDevice you're using.

In this guide we have described how to adjust RAM and Flash memory for a project. You can see the suggested RAM values from SES in the log you screenshotted and uploaded.

Best regards,

Simon

Thanks for the reply. I have modified the RAM/Flash settings to what I believe is the compiler recommended settings, but still doesn't work. The settings are as the attachment.Device settings.pdfI have also tried the settings on the suggested tab, and again doesn't work.
