Application timer without enabling soft devicehttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/71810/application-timer-without-enabling-soft-deviceI am trying to bring up an application that uses the soft device, but not right after power up. I want to use an application timer to schedule a timeout say 10 minutes after power up, and then I want to enable the soft device and the BLE engine.
