Hello,

Please add DEBUG to your preprocessor definitions, and show me what it looks like when the error occurs after that. Please also take a screenshot. I am not sure exactly what you mean when you say "Filing".

Hey Edvin,

As I mentioned in my Issue Filing that this problem comes when I compile, download and flash and then try to debug with the SEM.

I don't have this issue when I compile the exact same code with armgcc, flash it using nrfjprog, use JLinkRTTLogger or JLinkRTTViewer/Exe for logging. Everything works fine in this case

Regards

Yash

Are you using FreeRTOS? (I am asking because I have seen a bug in SES related to that).

If not, then this doesn't really look license related. It just looks like you are trying to enable the softdevice when it is already enabled. The return values from the API that is passed into APP_ERROR_CHECK() is a mechanism to check that the application running on the nRF is actually doing what you expect it to do.

BR,

Edvin

Hey Edvin,

I took the license at shown in the video and after that still I have issues when I compile and flash my code with SES.

<info> app_timer: RTC: initialized.
<info> app: calling blestack_int
<info> app: before nser 1

"The code here is err_code = nrf_sdh_enable_request();"
<info> app: after nser - 0x8 (0x8 is the err_code which is NRF_ERROR_INVALID_STATE)
<error> app: Fatal error (At APP_ERROR_CHECK(err_code);)

I got the license now from the video. Will check everything by tomorrow and reply to this. Thanks for the info.

Hey Edvin,

I am using an SES which has a non-commercial license (image below)

When I compile this code examples/ble_peripheral/ble_app_hids_mouse/ also adding some code of my own I am unable to run it on the PCA10040 Dev Board. I am unable to even debug properly.

But I am able to compile and run the same code through armgcc folder using a make file and Cross compiler.

Both the ways of compiling have the same values of parameters defined in the linker.

I am using PCA10040 + S132 in the above folder.

Regards

Yash

Hello Yash,

I am not sure I understand your exact issues. Is the issue that you are not able to debug using SES? In that case, just in case you are not aware, you can get a free, but full license when developing on Nordic devices.

It has been a while since I did this, but it should look something like in this video:

I have not tested Segger Embedded Studio without a licence, so I am not sure what it behaves like in that case.

Best regards,

Edvin
