app_timer_stop return 0x04(NO MEM) error

[lyrics]

Hi, all..

An error occurs as soon as it connect and disconnect through advertising. Timer interrupt is currently running on the main function..

and then I found error meaing.. below.. 

 

 * @retval     NRF_ERROR_NO_MEM          If the timer operations queue was full.
 */
ret_code_t app_timer_stop(app_timer_id_t timer_id);

so 'timer operation queue was full' is the reason..

then where should I check? 

BR,

Hi, you can try to increase APP_TIMER_CONFIG_OP_QUEUE_SIZE in sdk_config.h.

You might also consider checking how often you call app_timer library functions, maybe you have frequent unnecessary calls to the library !

APP_TIMER_CONFIG_OP_QUEUE_SIZE is set to 10..

so I increase to 20, but still same error. Do I have to set a higher value?..

My project is based 'ble_app_uart.c'.. and I added scan module / two timer interrupt..(ms and ns)

Also it works first connection!

For a specific app I had to increase above 100 because I needed repeated calls to app_timer_start and app_timer_stop, that fixed the issue

Best regards,

My project seems to be a different matter. The error is still not fixed..

 What timer instance are you using? Are you using  ble_app_uart_c i.e the central NUS example? If you are then it already has the scanner module enabled. Can you share your code?

My project is based ble_app_uart ! So I added scan module.

I use NRF_DRV_TIMER_INSTANCE.

This is my timer_init code.. and call every 200ns, 1000ns (1ms) in the main.

static void timers_init(void)
{
    ret_code_t err_code ;
    uint32_t time_ticks, time_ticks_us;

    /** added */
    nrf_drv_timer_config_t timer_cfg = NRF_DRV_TIMER_DEFAULT_CONFIG;
    timer_cfg.frequency = 0;
    err_code = nrf_drv_timer_init(&TIMER_MS, &timer_cfg, timer_ms_event_handler);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    time_ticks = nrf_timer_us_to_ticks(time_ms, 0);
    nrf_drv_timer_extended_compare(
         &TIMER_MS, NRF_TIMER_CC_CHANNEL0, time_ticks, NRF_TIMER_SHORT_COMPARE0_CLEAR_MASK, true);
    nrf_drv_timer_enable(&TIMER_MS);

    //us_timer
    nrf_drv_timer_config_t timer_cfg_2 = NRF_DRV_TIMER_DEFAULT_CONFIG;
    timer_cfg_2.frequency = 0;
    err_code = nrf_drv_timer_init(&TIMER_US, &timer_cfg_2, timer_us_event_handler);
    APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);

    time_ticks_us = nrf_timer_us_to_ticks(time_us, 0);
    nrf_drv_timer_extended_compare(&TIMER_US, 
                                    NRF_TIMER_CC_CHANNEL1,
                                    time_ticks_us, 
                                    NRF_TIMER_SHORT_COMPARE1_CLEAR_MASK, 
                                    true);
    nrf_drv_timer_enable(&TIMER_US);
}

This is my main func..

while(1)
{
    sys_us_timer();
    sys_ms_timer();
}

Whoops! I deleted your previous reply on accident. But you wrote that you had fixed the issue by including the init function for the application timer right?

sorry

Yes!

That's all right. Thank you :)
