Proper way to shutdown an application

[brianreinhold]

I am writing a basic health device application, It starts, loads saved data, starts advertising, takes measurements, if a connection occurs the data is transferred, other wise saved, when done with measurements, the device is to shut down. If connected, that would be a disconnect.

Now I want to shut down softdevice, save data, and quit (turn off completely except maybe a CMOS if there is one). What is the proper procedure? In the health device examples, the softdevice_handler_sd_disable() is never called but the softdevice_enable() is always called.

Hi, 

You could refer to the Power Profiling Application example for shutting down the system. 

Notice that we are entering the Christmas and New Year holidays and will have reduced staff, please expect delayed responses until after January 4th. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Link doesn't work. Using s130 and SDK 12.3.0

Hi, 

This Power Profiling Application for under nRF5_SDK_12.3.0\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_pwr_profiling\pca10028\s130.

It turns out that one should not exit the for(;;) loop and so what I do after I disable the soft device is to reset the CPU. Easiest solution.
