Adding and enabling nRF driver to a project in SEGGER through CMSIS configuration wizard

[HRB]

Hi DevZone,

I am new to nRF SoC and SEGGER. After installing all tools, I can build and run examples.

I run into a problem to add and enable a nRF driver, like "UARTE peripheral driver", what are the procedure and step to do that?

I try to use the CMSIS configuration wizard to do that, but I found the followings in different examples as:

where I can enable the device I want to use, but on some example I found:

I even can not see "NRFX_UARTE_ENABLED - nrfx_uarte - UARTE peripheral driver" overthere.

So anybody can help me on two questions:

1. how to add and enable a nRF driver to a project under SEGGER?

2. how to add those missing modules, nRF driver on CMSIS configuration wizard? 

Thanks,

HRB

Hi HRB,

• For "Importing files and drivers" please check out this tutorial.
• For "How to use the CMSIS Configuration Wizard" please check out this tutorial.

Did this get sorted out? I'm having the same problem and neither of the provided references says how to get a driver to show up in CMSIS Wizard if it's not already there...

Hi Ron,

The CMIS Wizard is just a graphical representation of what's in the sdk_config.h file.

If something that you need is not in there, you have to add it to the sdk_config.h file first. 

The easiest solution would be to copy from a project what already have what you need in the sdk_config.h.

(example on how to add something that's missing in sdk_config is listed here)

Hi Martin,

The tutorial to "CMSIS Configuration Wizard" worked to a certain extent.

Prior to inserting the additional line of code below, the option to open CMSIS Config Wizard was not even available. However after inserting the code, I could see the option and click on it.

<item name="Tool.CMSIS_Config_Wizard" wait="no">
    <menu>&CMSIS Configuration Wizard</menu>
    <text>CMSIS Configuration Wizard</text>
    <tip>Open a configuration file in CMSIS Configuration Wizard</tip>
    <key>Ctrl+Y</key>
    <match>*config*.h</match>
    <message>CMSIS Config</message>
    <commands>
      java -jar "$(CMSIS_CONFIG_TOOL)" "$(InputPath)"
    </commands>
</item>

Here's the problem. Upon clicking the option, no wizard/window pops out for me to enable RTT & Logging.
I am following this tutorial here:

Thank you for your help and support in advanced!!

Hi Kin,
Please make a new ticket since this case is over 2 years old and then also specify which segger version you are using in the new ticket.
