Central getting disconnected automatically after few seconds with 0x08 reason.

RE: Central getting disconnected automatically after few seconds with 0x08 reason.

No error message is shown . But the Peripheral gets the disconnect event also when i press the button to send the data the communication gets place. I am bit confused why the peripheral is getting the disconnect event ?. and if it is disconnecting then how the data is getting communicated.??? At the time of disconnection the central does not get any disconnect event though.

[quote userid="67304" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/50059/central-getting-disconnected-automatically-after-few-seconds-with-0x08-reason/200470"]NO. No the error is not shown as i removed the handler function.[/quote]

Ok, what does the error message say now?

NO. No the error is not shown as i removed the handler function.

[quote userid="4240" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/50059/central-getting-disconnected-automatically-after-few-seconds-with-0x08-reason/200406"]Does it happen on startup, or do you need to do something to trigger it?[/quote]

Yes. After connection event the device goes to NRF_BREAKPOINT_COND .

Actually , I want to send the predefined data to peripheral after detecting the key press is short or long from a 7*2 matrix keypad. i have done all the BLE stack related configuration as same as Led Button service example. Just the difference in the button handler.

Same error in app_button.c at line 186? Does it happen on startup, or do you need to do something to trigger it?

I can't build your project here since there are several missing dependencies.

[quote userid="4240" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/50059/central-getting-disconnected-automatically-after-few-seconds-with-0x08-reason/200201"]he error indicates that you've called app_button_enable() without configuring any buttons first. [/quote]

yes error was due to the enabling the button without initializing it. But even after removing the function i am getting this error.I have added the C code below:

RE: Central getting disconnected automatically after few seconds with 0x08 reason.

[quote userid="4240" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/50059/central-getting-disconnected-automatically-after-few-seconds-with-0x08-reason/200201"]Would be helpful to see your code for this[/quote]

Indeed.

How to properly post source code:

also use the same technique for posting logs - just leave the 'Language' as 'Text' (instead of changing to 'C')

No, I think it's probably unrelated to clock drift since you are using a crystal.

Would be helpful to see your code for this. The error indicates that you've called app_button_enable() without configuring any buttons first.

I have done debugging on code.Got following errors:

<info> app: LED Button service discovered on conn_handle 0x0.<CR><LF>
<error> app: Fatal error<CR><LF>
<error> app: ERROR 3735928559 [Unknown error code] at <the project path>\components\libraries\button\app_button.c:186<CR><LF>

Hello Vidar,

I am using external crystal on my board. Do i need to set any thing else.

Thanks and regards.

Hello,

This could be a symptom of clock drift. Do you have an external 32KHz crystal on your custom board, or are you using the internal RC oscillator for the 'slow clock'? If you use the internal RC oscillator you need to set the clock accuracy to 500 ppm when you enable the Softdevice.
