Not every time you need to access it.&nbsp;</p> <p>Starting the LF clock is always necessary if you want to use the RTC, and as long as you trigger the STOP task after the LF clock is started, before you configure and use the RTC, then you shouldn&#39;t have any problems.&nbsp;</p> <p>You won&#39;t have to worry about this workaround when using the app_timer module or the SoftDevice, as they have been designed with this issue in mind.&nbsp;</p> <p>Best regards<br />Torbjørn</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
