Embedded studio does not run code

[AnthonyPhan]

Hi All,

I have been using Keil but have decided to test "Seggers Embedded Studio for ARM" to develop firmware for the NRF51822. After following this tutorial i have been able to import the heart rate example from SDK 12.3.0 into Embedded Studio and upload the code using the "Build and Run" button. I noticed that after uploading the firmware the NRF51-DK was not advertising. However it would begin advertising after I reset the board using the on-board reset button or Reset the chip using the NrFGo studio (by reading the chip).

Why does the "Build and Run" button not automatically run the uploaded firmware? is this the expected behaviour?

If so how can I get the code to automatically run the code without hard resetting the board?

Hi Anthony, 

 

Could you send your project here so we can test ?

Have you tried to test with very simple program such as blinking an LED to see if it works ? We have seen project hang right after programming if RTT Viewer is connected to the board before flashing.
