nRF Connect Log not showing any values in SES

Hi All

I know this is stupid but I can't figure it out - either I've missed something obvious or not connected something properly (or at all).

Using the PCA10040 nRF5 development kit and Segger Embedded Studio with the program in debug mode. The link light is flashing so something is happening and the program doesn't run until I press "Go" so seems pretty solid.

The nRF Connect Log does not react at all when a program is running, even when [Start] is pressed. The button [nRF Connect Log] just shows "no editors" which is a useless bit of information.

I have searched using Google and the Nordic site but can find no information on how to implement this. I guess I'm looking for the wrong thing but not many results show up.

How do I use this, as my Blinky program (ble_app_blinky_pca10040_s132 taken from the SDK) refuses to connect to the nRF Blinky app (downloaded today) on an Android S7 and I can't see a reason for it. The connection works with nRF Connect so it is something in the details which stops the connection.

Is there a debug connection which needs to be made? Or a sniffer of some sort?

Thanks in advance.

    I have now followed the debugging tutorial on YouTube which shows how to switch on the debugging mode. Would prefer that it's more obvious than this but it seems to have worked. View the debugging video here. This video also shows how to install the CMSIS tool which allows editing of the sdk_config.h file in a tick-box style rather than searching through code.
