[RK]

Hi Rk Menat,

When you add a break point and halt the CPU, other peripheral that the stack uses(timer, RTC, PPI, radio) still work and when you call a softdevice API, most likely you will receive a hardfault because the stack already crash.

For debugging you can use UART or Segger RTT to printout the trace.

Hi RK Menat, You can debug as long as you don't call further sd_* API. The BLE connectivity will be broken anyway if you add a break point (because the softdevice stops). It's suggested to use UART or Segger RTT to printout debug trace or you can add a breakpoint and step until another sd_* API call.

You can have a look here and here.
