Running nRF52811 on nRF52832 Development Kit via Soldering nRF52811 chip onto Development Kit

Question

So I want to run the nRF52811 chip so I removed the nRF52832 chip from its development kit and soldered the nRF52811 chip but I cannot seem to program it. What are the required settings I would be needing to change to make it work, for starters, a simple 'ble_app_beacon' example. 
 I am using Segger Embedded Studio (SES).

Finally, it worked. The issue was that when I opened the PCA10056e project it opened in the Non-commercial license of Segger Embedded Studio and did not even work with the nRF52840 whereas when I opened PCA10056 it showed licensed version of Segger Embedded Studio. So I reinstalled Segger Embedded Studio and it started to give licensed version also in the PCA10056e projects in SES. 
 So in a nutshell, soldering nRF52811 onto the nRF52832 Development Kit board works with running the PCA10056e project with modifications in: 
 If you have developed your application using the emulated project as a starting point, there is only one step you need to perform before you can run it natively on nRF52811: In your IDE, remove the DEVELOP_IN_NRF52840 and NRFX_COREDEP_DELAY_US_LOOP_CYCLES defines from the compile flags.
