Fatal error when not connect Uart port

[lamdo]

Hi,

I am trying ble_app_uart example of SDK 15.

When I do not connect Uart port (TX, RX) to other peripheral, I get fatal error (log via RTT).

```

0> <error> app: Fatal error

```

When UART port is connected, the program works normally.

Does anyone experience on this?

Thank you.

Hi Lamdo,

Could you define Debug and set the (nrf log) severity level to 4 (debug level) in sdk_config.h to get out more error information?

(If you are using Segger IDE.)

I turned on DEBUG log, and saw something about UARTE (when I did not active in sdk_config.h), but no special logs for fatal error.

However, I just tried on original uart-app example, I did not see the error, so I am checking configuration on my modified project.

Thank you for your support.

That message is printed by the error checking in debug mode, and in the UART demo the error handler calls APP_ERROR_HANDLER if there is a comms error (very possible if comms not connected, wrong baud rate, too much data etc). 

The solution is to remove or replace the APP_ERROR_HANDLER call (depending on whether you want to know about comm errors or not).
