Merging HEX file with Softdevice

[Nicholas_Nuti]

Hello,

I can't get the hex file to come out correctly in segger studio. What happens is, I build the solution and create the hex file but when I go to program my device with it.... well the device doesn't work correctly. I added an output file in the linker to create a hex file, I added the softdevice s140 in the loader, and I even used the command line tools to try and merge the created hex file with the softdevice.... but the device does not function when programmed in this way. I can get the device to work perfectly when using "Build and run" on SES but when I try to manually download a created HEX file nothing works.

Thanks,

Nick

Hi

Can you check that you have the correct number of "../" in your additional load file path? Would you mind sending me the .hex file so I could take a look here on my end? Can you also tell me what changes you've made to the original project and what SDK you are using?

Best regards,

Simon

Yes, I have 6 "../" s in my loader path to the softdevice hex file. I used the BLE app template and added the following: button press notification, client-side disconnect, and added the SIG battery service. My hex file is only 137 KB so I'm pretty sure the softdevice just isn't getting programmed.

Sorry, I forgot to note that I'm using SDK v16! Thank you.
