Uploading test code onto custom pcb with nRF51 chip

I have made a basic pcb for a school project, with just the nRF51422 chip, a J-LINK programmer and and antenna on it. I am trying to test the functionality of it. I have gotten the blinky example to work, but I cannot seem to get any of the other example codes to work properly. I am mainly interested in getting the Bluetooth to advertise. Are there some modifications I need to make in the code when switching from the DK to my own board/chip configuration?

  • The mapping seems to be working fine. In testing the GPIOs, the 4 pins associated with the leds on the DK board are high, which is partially correct (one should be blinking). I'm wondering if any of the example code utilizes the MCU on the DK, which I do not have on my board. Also, in trying to change the pins being used for the GPIO outuputs, it appears that many of the .c files and .h files are locked. Is there a way to unlock these files for editing? This is after I copy an example into my own directory.
