Configuration of GPIO pins on Port 1 doesn't work

Hey..

I'm having difficulties using P1 pins for UART.

I just changed the blinky example for checking the P1 pin changes with it. But no changes where monitored as expected.

I think the P1 configuration using NRF_GPIO_PIN_MAP isn`t set.

  • Looking at the code I can see that nrf_gpio_pin_set(SER_APP_RX_PIN); will only run for a few microseconds. Likely better to try:

    {
    bsp_board_led_invert(i);
    nrf_gpio_pin_clear(SER_APP_RX_PIN);
    nrf_delay_ms(1000);
    nrf_gpio_pin_set(SER_APP_RX_PIN);
    nrf_delay_ms(1000); // Add this
    }

    OR

    {
    bsp_board_led_invert(i);
    nrf_gpio_pin_toggle(SER_APP_RX_PIN); // Similar to invert.
    nrf_delay_ms(1000);
    }
