ble_app_proximity_pca10056e_s112.emProject run error

Hi,

I've bought a nRF52840-DK kit to evaluate a Nordic BLE SOC (we are interested in using the nRF52811). I've installed SEGGER Embedded Studio 4.52, and obtained a Nordic License for its use. I then tried to open the "nRF5SDK17009d13099\nRF5_SDK_17.0.0_9d13099\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_proximity\pca10056e\s112\ses" project - as this deals with advertisement and will allow us to measure some real-time current consumption's for various advertisement rates and intervals. 

The project compiled and loaded to the kit without any issues - but when debugging encounters an error during the "peer_manager_init()" routine, which stops the application immediately. I haven't changed any code in the example and wanted to initially run things as it - before trying to understand and modify this example project.

I'm now unsure how to proceed further?

Regards,

Nicholas

  • Hi Marte,

    Thanks for the useful links. I'm finding most of the documentation refers to either GCC or the Keil development platform - when SES (Segger Embedded Studio) is the recommended platform? And the programming routines for the SoftDevice refer to "nRFgo Studio", which is actually not recommended for nRF52 - nRFConnect -> Programmer is? 

    Therefore, I have to keep guessing the correct steps, by try to do the same procedure in an undocumented environment! 

    Anyway, I did manage to get the Proximity Application now running with the SoftDevice programmed - but had to manually "drag and drop" the 2x required HEX files (the Proximity Application HEX generated from SES, and the other HEX from the S112 SoftDevice directory). You would think SES could program the SoftDevice and Application automatically.

    Thanks again,

    Nicholas

     

  • Hi Nicholas.

    Great to hear that you managed to get it running!

    I'm sorry for not linking the guide for using SES with nRF5 SDK earlier. You can find it here.

    Best regards,

    Marte
