hi dot,

yes i solved my problem, i can connect and discover, it(s just following the steps of code that i posted, and adjusting your ram and uuid.count as @Einar said.

Sorry i don't know PT210, didn't worked on it.

Hi. MokhlesAdalia
Have you connected the PT210 product?
How did you solve it?

Did you solve the problem? Did you successfully connect?

Yes, thank you, that's what i've been doing, but i figured out my mistake, i was increasing the vs_uuid_count in another strucrure.

Thanks 😃

Your changes to ble_nus_c.h seems sensible. This also worked when I tested on my side. Perhaps the issue is with how you configured support for more UUIDs?

Referring to the NUS central sample in SDK 12.3 I did this minor change to main.c to make it work,

diff --git a/examples/ble_central/ble_app_uart_c/main.c b/examples/ble_central/ble_app_uart_c/main.c

     CHECK_RAM_START_ADDR(CENTRAL_LINK_COUNT,PERIPHERAL_LINK_COUNT);

And in the Keil project I configure the IRAM1 start address to 0x20002800 and size to 0x1800 (could perhaps be optimized).

Can anyone help please ?

Hi,

when i use sd_ble_uuid_vs_add() only one time for the service , err_code will be 0x00 meaning NRF_SUCCESS..

wheni use sd_ble_uuid_vs_add() for 3 times err_code will be 0x04 meanning NRF_ERROR_NO_MEM

by "Stucks" i mean when i call sd_ble_uuid_vs_add() for the second time for the characteristic the APP_ERROR_CHECK (err_code) leads directly to the end of the function, it means that an error has occured, i think err_code = 0x04 which is NRF_ERROR_NO_MEM i told you.

i think i have a memory problem although i thought i've well adjusted it after reading some information.

the below presents my RAM area :

RAM1 :

starts : 0x20002800 -- size: 0xDDE0 (using Keil)

i hope am close to solve this issue.

Hi,

[quote user=""]after each use of "sd_ble_uuid_vs_add" a VERIFY_SUCCESS(err_code); is used, but is stucks after the first use of sd_ble_uuid_vs_add().[/quote]

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "stucks"? Do you get any errors returned from the call to sd_ble_uuid_vs_add() or any other function? What is the state of your application? Is any APP_ERROR_CHECK hit? What have you found by debugging?

[quote user=""]PS3: i adjusted the uuid count with : p_ble_enable_params->common_enable_params.vs_uuid_count = 3 in function ble_stack_init(void)
since am using SDk 12.3.0 ( don't has NRF_SDH_BLE_VS_UUID_COUNT in it's sdk_config.h)[/quote]

This should be good.
