RTC stops on BLE disconnecthttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/14222/rtc-stops-on-ble-disconnectHi, I have a application that receives the Epoch time from the Android Application and increments every second. and needs to store and increment the Epoch Time value even after BLE disconnect. But unfortunately the Timer stops on ble_disconnect.

(RTC 0 is blocked by the softdevice when the softdevice is enabled (System on <a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.nordic.infocenter.s132.sds%2Fdita%2Fsoftdevices%2Fs130%2Fsd_resource_reqs%2Fhw_block_interrupt_vector.html&amp;cp=2_3_0_0_6_0">Chip resource requirements --&gt; Hardware peripherals</a>)</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>RE: RTC stops on BLE disconnecthttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/54323?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 12 Jun 2016 14:00:35 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:06ac678d-2c78-4291-9b50-79c92189631bVijayalakshmi<p>Sorry i couldnt share the code.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>RE: RTC stops on BLE disconnecthttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/54322?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 02 Jun 2016 18:43:49 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:d4ab8f86-5933-4369-aeb0-931837fac960James Yu<p>The timer shouldn&#39;t stop when disconnected. Can you share your code?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>RE: RTC stops on BLE disconnecthttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/54321?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 02 Jun 2016 04:59:55 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:a41239f3-991b-49e1-8210-8271a419f0a2Vijayalakshmi<p>Thanks for quick reply. I have already implemented the timer the way you have told . But i want the timer not to stop after the ble disconnect and keep increment the timer every second in background. but unfortunately the timer is stopped after ble disconnect.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>RE: RTC stops on BLE disconnecthttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/54320?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 01 Jun 2016 15:04:50 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:d75e4d55-6528-4f56-a91d-e3dc2db08e52James Yu<p>That&#39;s what the RTC is for. You can send the initial time from the phone at start, but afterwards you can just start a repeating timer with 1 second interval and do timekeeping there. You can take a look at the simple_timer example in the SDK.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
