Hi
I'm using NCS 1.4.0 and SES. If I change the setting in Serial LTE modem to CONFIG_SLM_CONNECT_UART_2 for external MCU connection, I get an error msg from SES: Cannot configure project. It works fine with UART_1. Everything else is unchanged. Am I missing something? Should I configure something else? anybody else getting the same error?
Hi,
In prj.conf there are two lines for UART_2, did you configure both?
"To connect with an external MCU, you must set the configuration options CONFIG_SLM_GPIO_WAKEUP and CONFIG_SLM_CONNECT_UART_2 in the serial LTE modem application configuration."
Can you provide the output log when building?
Thanks

Hi
I did set both configuration options in SES. Then the configuration failed with the before mentioned error. However, when changing the options in prj.conf instead, I got the following compilation error (same error with west and SES):

The example above is built using a local copy from the SDK, but doing the same inside the SDK with the original application yields the same result.
I am not able to reproduce this error.
Are you using NCS via the Toolchain Manager? I've tested using both SES and Bash in NCS 1.4.0 in Toolchain Manager. Have you added anything / configured anything else in your NCS?
-Øyvind
I have not changed anything but the two setting in prj.conf
I'm using the toolchain manager, and the same error appears using bash.
Hi
Now I installed a fresh NCS v1.4.2 via toolchain manger
Built SLM as is in SES -> ok
Changed both configuration options from within SES -> tried building -> error as shown below
Ok, I have been able to reproduce this issue.
Are you getting the same output in SES? (Under the configuration window)?
exactly the same, yes
exactly the same, yes
The issue is UART_2_NRF_HW_ASYNC_TIME which is set at the same time as SLM_CONNECT_UART_2, is not configured with a value. I am currently working on a work-around.
Please try setting the UART_2_NRF_HW_ASYNC_TIME=2 manually in menuconfig in SES. This worked for me. This is the only work around at the moment.
thank you. Worked fine!
Hi Oyvind, I'm having trouble with the same issue. But after I set the UART2 for the first time, the menuconfig never loads again. Can you walk me through how to manually change these parameters?
Here is what I get after changing config to UART2
