nRF51822 ble_proximity example on SEGGER Embedded Studio with SDK 12.3.0 and SoftDevice 2.0.1 hex file not working

[jloliveira]

Dear Madam/Sir,

I'm trying to compile the ble_proximity example on SEGGER Embedded Studio with SDK 12.3.0 and SoftDevice 2.0.1 to run on nRF51822 with PCA10001.

After following the tutorial on http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/pdf/getting_started_ses.pdf to develop nRF51 applications with SES, I was able to compile the ble_proximity example, generate its hex and then program both the application and SoftDevice 2.0.1 hexes on the PCA10001. Yet, although the compiling and download goes smoothly, there is no BLE advertising from the board. I tried to download the ble_app_proximity_pca10028_s130.hex pre-compiled in the example and it works perfectly.

Please find the project files in attachment for your appreciation. Can you please help me out to understand what is missing in my SES project?

Thank you,

João

Thank you for the example Jimmy.

Yet, I was able to compile it and download it to the PCA10001 board successfully but it didn't work out.

Are you please able to send me an hex that worked on your nRF51822-based board?

Thank you,

João
