[tyler]

Hello,

i am meeting problem to program the SoftDevice using an example project in Keil for nrf52832. i have tested the development kit setup use Blinky Example . it is ok. my DK(PCA10040) works well. but when i Running examples that use a SoftDevice. i got a problem. i follow all step : 1.Open an example project in Keil. The example must require a SoftDevice. 2.Instead of the default target, select the target to flash the SoftDevice, for example, flash_s132_nrf52_1.0.0-3.alpha_softdevice. 3.Click Options for Target. 4.Select the Debug pane and click the Settings button for the J-Link / J-TRACE Cortex. 5.Select the J-Link / J-Trace Adapter corresponding to the serial number that is printed on your device. 6.Click OK to close the dialogs. 7.In the main window, click Built button.

but nothing happend with follow information:

*** Using Compiler 'V5.06 (build 20)', folder: 'C:\Keil_v5\ARM\ARMCC\Bin' Build target 'flash_s132_nrf52_1.0.0-3.alpha_softdevice' Build Time Elapsed: 00:00:00

no HEX file is created.

can you help me? what's the problem?

You don't build softdevice as you don't have source code. You just flash it. If you have problems flashing it in keil (I never did that) just use nRFgo Studio to load SoftDevice hex to the chip.

This is correct. Press the "Load" button or press F8

thanks for your reply. i download the nRF52_SDK_0.9.2_dbc28c9.zip . i run a sample project in the SDK. do you mean the SDK is not include source code? or not full code to run?

if i press the "load"button . error message: error: flash Download failed - Could not load file `..........\components\softdevice\s132\hex\s132_nrf52_1.0.0-3.alpha_softdevice.hex'
