This sounds like something that should have been posted as a separate question, but the SDK you have installed is for our nRF8001 chip. If you're working with the nRF51822, you need to get the nRF51 SDK, which is available on the download tab of the nRF51822 Development Kit and nRF51822 Evaluation Kit pages. If you see a red lock there, you need to enter a product key from a kit to get access to it.

I can't find examples(may they haven't been installed then why?). c:\Keil\C51\ISD51\Examples\Nordic_nRF\ is the only examples related folder but it doesn't contain any ble code

Another thing is that I have different version: nrf8001_sdk_v1_7_install, but it is the only one I was offered to download...

Please advice. Thank you in advance.

If you found Håkon's answer useful, I'd be happy if you could accept it, so that it is clear to others what actually solved your problem. :)

I was handed three boxes and have four boards lashed together: the ones from Nordic came in a little box and a big box. Since the big box said "starter" on it I downloaded all its associated software, followed its documentation and I went astray right from the start. I currently follow only the path of nRF51855 and miraculously I can compile and run example projects.

In hindsight, it does not make sense to me to provide any software support directly for the Starter since it is what plugs into it that completes it.

Now Im busy deciphering the elegant (but tangled) code to find where the hardware interface happens.

Thanks, Andrew.

Hi,

Nordic's nrfgo_sdk_2.3.0_setup.exe

This is the installer for the nRF24L-series SDK. You want to install the nRF51 SDK.

Best regards Håkon

when you install the sdk make sure to scroll up and select the keil support files. They are disabled on default.
