What PCA Number should I select in the SDK examples? And what is causing this error?

Hi there!

I had some great help on my last article about getting started. I'm now using Segger Embedded Studio and the nRF SDK Version 15.

Before I get too deep into BLE and high-speed stuff, I just wanted to get a blinky example up and running. First question:

What is the PCA number for a nRF52810 chip? The options for blinky (and other examples) include PCA10040, 10040e, 10056, and 10059. I firstly want to make sure I'm choosing the right one.

Secondly:

When I choose PCA10040 (just as a guess), load it into SES, I cannot get it to even build. I get the error:

"Cannot find run section .log_dynamic_data_run referenced in log_dynamic_data"

Could anyone please help? I'm new to SES and Nordic parts. One thing to note: I'm programming a custom PCB with the nRF52810 on it - not a development kit. However, I'm not even programming anything yet - I just can't even get a blinky example to build, so I'm guessing I'm doing something simple wrong.

Thanks!

Also a sub-question: in Options > Debug > Debugger > Target Device, should I choose nRF52810_xxAA when programming my PCB? Is there anywhere else in options/settings I need to specify what chip is being programmed? Thanks.
