Custom Board Bluetooth advertising error

[Reshma_k]

Hello People,

I am working on a custom board and while trying ble_app_uart example code instead of the advertising name given in the code the device was showing "DFU_TARG". IIs there any configurations that need to be set while using the custom board ?

Thanks and Regards

Hello,

The device will advertise as "Dfu_Targ" if it is running our SDK BLE bootloader example, so maybe the board came pre-programmed with it? In that case, you can do a chip erase to erase the bootloader before programming the  ble_app_uart example.

If you use nrfjprog you can erase the chip with the  "nrfjprog -e" command. Or if you use Segger embedded Studio: Select "Target" from the menubar, and click on the 'Connect J-link' to connect the debugger, and then 'Erase All' to perform the erase.

Best regards,

Vidar
