uVision 5 problem while making a new nRF51 project

[Bo Nystedt]

Hello, I have problems with project making since I started with KEIL uVision 5 (in uVision 4 I had no problems, but see no way to download uVision 4 any more). I followed the uVision4/5 tutorial (it doesn't seem updated): How to make a new project. New->New uVision project-> Create New Project->File Name: Test->Save->Generic CPU Data Base/Nordic nRF51 Series Devices-> Nordic nRF51 Series Devices->OK-> CPU. The only available choice is STMicroelectronics devices (STM32F4s), despite I have choosen nRF51 Series. Devices. I see no choice and press Enter And when pressing enter I get the message:”Toolset is undefined since no device is selected. Use 'Project – Select Device' to specify a device for the project.” When choosing Selkrct device for Target 'Target1' I get the message:”Generic CPU Data Base/Nordic nRF51 Series Devices-> Nordic nRF51 Series Devices->OK-> CPU. … and the process is repeated. Does anyone have a clue what's wrong? Perhaps someone at NordicSemi could contactt Keil about it?

Best regards Bo Nystedt

I see the same issue you do, but I would normally not recommend starting a new project, as there is simply no benefit from doing so. You should instead start from ble_app_template, by just copying that project and rename it. This will ensure that all flash and debug settings are correct, and will most likely save you from trouble later.

Also, if you want to download a previous version of Keil, you can get access to previous downloads by entering your PSN or LIC on this page.
