Is there a good walk-through of how to use the BLE template from the SDK?

Ketil: I figured out how to use this thanks to you and the tutorial. I also completed challenge 1 and am very excited to start my own application. Thank you again!

Thank you for your input. I am considering trying SES at this point. It would be nice to not have the code limitations, but I am on limited time because I am an intern and don't want to spend a lot of time learning a new IDE.

I am using Keil to do my programming. I also tried using nFR Go Studio to load the hex files as well as 'drag and drop' in Windows Explorer. My device is the nRF52-DK with the nFR52832 chip. I used version 14.2 of the SDK. I also realized I was in error in my previous post. I am using V5.0 of the S132 soft device.

Matthew Johnson: The example is based on SDK v14.2.0 and S132 v5.0.0. If you're using Keil or GCC then you need to flash the SoftDevice separately. If you're using SES then the SoftDevice is automatically flashed together with the application code.

Hi,

Great that you found the tutorial useful!

Which IDE are you using? nRF52832 or nRF52840? Which SDK?

Thank you for the information. This is exactly the type of tutorial I was looking for. However, I am trouble getting my code to load onto my nRF52-DK. I am not getting any compilation errors or warnings. I have also tried loading the soft device (S132 v3.0) before loading the program and then loading just the program first. Everything seems to load ok, but I am not able to find the device in the nRF Connect program. My other Bluetooth devices show up on the list. Any other suggestions?

Hi Matthew,

I think this Custom Service Tutorial is exactly what you are looking for.
