Adding Blinky features in my Example

[Anubhav]

Hi,

I am working on a project where I am sending and receiving Encrypted string data from my phone with nRF Toolbox to the nRF52840 DK. The basic paring is established along with bonding.

I am able to send and receive strings from both the sides too. Now I added a button to the nRF Toolbox UART feature.

Now when I press the button an led on the nRF52840 DK should glow. I am done with the app side but I wanted to add the blinky features to the nRF52840. But I am getting a FATAL ERROR.

I didn't do many changes in my code. I just added the below functions to my code can you please tell me the error.

static void led_write_handler(uint16_t conn_handle, ble_lbs_t * p_lbs, uint8_t led_state)
{
    if (led_state)
    {
        bsp_board_led_on(LEDBUTTON_LED);
        NRF_LOG_INFO("Received LED ON!");
    }
    else
    {
        bsp_board_led_off(LEDBUTTON_LED);
        NRF_LOG_INFO("Received LED OFF!");
    }
}

static void services_init(void)
{
    uint32_t err_code;
    ble_nus_init_t     nus_init;
    ble_lbs_init_t     init     = {0};
    
    // Initialize NUS.
    memset(&nus_init, 0, sizeof(nus_init));

    nus_init.data_handler = nus_data_handler;

    err_code = ble_nus_init(&m_nus, &nus_init);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    //Initialize LBS.
    init.led_write_handler = led_write_handler;

    err_code = ble_lbs_init(&m_lbs, &init);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
}

Where, exactly, do you get that fatal error?

Have you enabled the RTT logging? That should give you more information ...

I'm not sure if you know, but the FATAL error as you see in your logging occurs in most cases due to the APP_ERROR_CHECK. So, a quick way of detecting where this occurs is of course to simply add a logging statement before the APP_ERROR statements in your code (or at least where you expect it would go wrong). Printing the location and err_code in most cases will do. Don't forget to place a NRF_LOG_FLUSH() after each logging statement to have it printed before the next statement.

Hi,

I possibly knew where the error was but I didn't know how to check for the error. Thanks for providing the solution.

I added the log statement as given below in the services_init function.

NRF_LOG_INFO("The err_code is %d",err_code);
NRF_LOG_FLUSH() ;

static void services_init(void)
{
    uint32_t err_code;
    ble_nus_init_t     nus_init;
    ble_lbs_init_t     init     = {0};
    
    // Initialize NUS.
    memset(&nus_init, 0, sizeof(nus_init));

    nus_init.data_handler = nus_data_handler;

    err_code = ble_nus_init(&m_nus, &nus_init);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    //Initialize LBS.
    init.led_write_handler = led_write_handler;

    err_code = ble_lbs_init(&m_lbs, &init);
    NRF_LOG_INFO("The err_code is %d",err_code);
    NRF_LOG_FLUSH() ;
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);
}

From the logs, the err_code is 4 which means No Memory for operation.

What should I do to increase the memory??

The Set Section Placement Macros list is attached below. Can you tell me what should I change in this and by how much?

FLASH_PH_START=0x0
FLASH_PH_SIZE=0x100000
RAM_PH_START=0x20000000
RAM_PH_SIZE=0x40000
FLASH_START=0x26000
FLASH_SIZE=0xda000
RAM_START=0x20003980
RAM_SIZE=0x3c680

Hi,

I could rectify the error by going through this thread.

Thank you for guiding me.

Hi, I have a small doubt in my code.

I have added the LBS service function from the blinky example to my code along with the turning OFF and ON of the led function.

static void led_write_handler(uint16_t conn_handle, ble_lbs_t * p_lbs, uint8_t led_state)
{
    if (led_state)
    {
        bsp_board_led_on(LEDBUTTON_LED);
        NRF_LOG_INFO("Received LED ON!");
    }
    else
    {
        bsp_board_led_off(LEDBUTTON_LED);
        NRF_LOG_INFO("Received LED OFF!");
    }
}

//Initialize LBS.
    init.led_write_handler = led_write_handler;

    err_code = ble_lbs_init(&m_lbs, &init);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

Now when I try to add the LBS_UUID_SERVICE in advertising_init() function as given below:-

#define NUS_SERVICE_UUID_TYPE   BLE_UUID_TYPE_VENDOR_BEGIN

#define LBS_SERVICE_UUID_TYPE   m_lbs.uuid_type

static ble_uuid_t m_adv_uuids[] = {
                                     {BLE_UUID_NUS_SERVICE, NUS_SERVICE_UUID_TYPE},
                                     {LBS_UUID_SERVICE, LBS_SERVICE_UUID_TYPE}
                                  };

The NUS UUID type is working fine but the LBS UUID type is giving me the error given below:-

Compiling ‘main.c’
2> C:\nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96\nRF5_SDK_15.2.0_9412b96\examples\ble_central_and_peripheral\experimental\ble_app_multirole_lesc\main.c:70:41: error: initializer element is not constant

Can you please tell where Am I going wrong???
