How to view the log

[Kebab]

This is definitely a stupid question but the uart ble example is littered with the likes of " NRF_LOG_INFO("Connected");". Where is this printed and how can I view it? I can see things that are in printf statements but not this LOG. I am using segger embedded studio, nrf connect for desktop and termite. 

Thanks!

Connect your board to your PC, then in Windows open the Device Manager, under Ports you will see something like "J-link UART Port" on the end there will be a com port assigned to it in brackets, example (COM8)

Start Termite and go in Settings, there as a Port set the com port that is assigned to your dev board, in Baud Rate select 115200 and click Ok. Restart your NRF dev board and you should see the output of the NRF_LOG_INFO in Termite now...

You dont specially need to use Termite, you can use any serial communication software, i use Putty for example...

Thanks for your reply. That's what I have been doing but things inside the NRF_LOG_INFO statements are not appearing on the terminal. Only things inside printf's come up

are you uploading the Debug version or Release version of your app on your dev board using Segger?

[Kebab]

Ah I don't think I was. Do I do this by hitting go on the rebuild bar in Segger?

Depending on your sdk_config.h, the app will output the debug logs to different place. Based on your chip and example, the NRF_LOG_BACKEND_RTT_ENABLED is already enabled by default. Technically, if you pop your J-Link RTT Viewer, you should see all that good stuff in Terminal 0 window.

Good Luck

I had tried that but no success. I had that setting enabled but was getting nothing in the RTT viewer window

Oh never mind. It has changed its mind and started working. Thank you tBStar and alexSvarc very much!
