Port nRF51-ble-bcast-mesh-master to RedBear Lab BLE Nano

[Max]

I use Keil uVision 4.74.0.22 to compile nRF51-ble-bcast-mesh-master with nrf51_sdk_v6_1_0_b2ec2e6 and get the rbc_mesh_BLE_Gateway.hex. However, I drag and drop the hex file to MBED drive and it's not working. I heard that uVision trial version only support 32KB firmware size. Would that be the problem?

@Max: have you also drag and drop softdevice to the mbed driver ? When compiling normal project with KEIL, the softdevice is not included.

You can follow this link: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/blogs/11/using-nrf51-sdk-with-the-nrf51822-mbed-kit/

@Max: How did you test the LED example ?

Note that the BLE_Gateway allow a phone to connect and join the network, that's why we have nrf_adv_conn_init() so that BLE central device can connect and control the other nodes.

In the LED example, they only do broadcast mesh, won't allow connection. The control is either from button press, or from a phone connected to the BLE Gateway.
