Porting examples from the Nordic SDK for the 52840 DK to the 52840 dongle--can't change the preprocessor definitions and the flash addresses for the linker.

Hi,

I've been following this tutorial on how to program the Nordic 52840 dongle and I'm stuck on the part where it is asked to change the preprocessor definitions and also the flash address in the linker.

The SES's version used in the tutorial is V4.10a, while I'm following the tutorial with V4.22a. When I go to project's options, this is what I see for the preprocessor definitions:


As it can be seen, there are some inherited definitions which include the BOARD_PCA10056 and I'm not sure how to edit them. For the examples for the pca 10059 (the dongle), the definition is also inherited (BOARD_PCA10059).

There is also no "linker" section:


What can I do to port over the examples that aren't already made for the dongle?

Thank you so much in advance!

Hi,

Looking at your screenshot I notice that you are changing the properties of the main.c file:

The correct approach is to edit the properties of the project itself. The easiest way to do that is to right-click on the project and select "Options...", as shown here:

Then you select the Common configuration in the dropdown, and edit the settings as explained in the tutorial.
