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.
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
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!
