I am trying to port a Keil project that builds and run on the nrf51 DK. I have been unable to port to SES using nrf52840 DK. There is a whole slew of problems and it's hard to know where to start. So I would like to do this piecemeal. First port to SES. The above looks like that step is being skipped. Can I port an nRF51 project to SES or MUST it be ported to nRF52?

I am using nRF51422 on nRF51-DK board (pca10028) which support nRF5 SDK version upto v12.3.0. Would this procedure to import SDK v12.3.0 pc10028 peripheral/central Keil project samples and for user defined Keil projects ?

For NRF51822 and SK12.3, you can find the solution in this thread. https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/48639/segger-embedded-studio-support-for-nrf5_sdk_12_3_0_d7732ad-this-is-not-a-question

Adding the fs_data In thumb_crt0.s as shown (thanks to @RK) will break any example or project which does not use fstorage.

Hello, i tried to get it running for my nRF51422 device. I use the SKD V12. At building process i get a lot of errors in the ble_advertising.c file. Does anyone know this problem? Best regards Max

The opening comment:

Note: It is recommended, but not necessary, to use the most recent releases of the above software.

Is not true!

Adopting that approach caused me problems: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/34784/conflicting-types-for-_putchar/137159#137159

So do not use the latest Segger (or any other 3rd-party) tools - use the one(s) listed in the Release Notes!

Hi, I am stuck on the section entitled "Building". I have gone into the project settings and added the following text to the Section Placement Macros field: "FLASH_START=0x1F000;SRAM_START=0x20002000"
However after adding this macro an error is thrown when i build the project.This error does not occur if i remove the project.

I have noted the for some reason my side panel appears different to the one shown in this tutorial also when in type the ; character embedded studio is automatically showing this as \;

That was the first thing I did, but unfortunatelly, the latest SDK with examples for S110 and S130 (i.e. for nrf51822 as a peripheral) was v.11. I looked through all the examples available in SKD14, but there were none for S130. I decided, that being a full noob, I'd better look for examples for S130, than repurpose the code from the newest SDK to old softdevice.

I believe the latest SDK has official support for SES, meaning you shouldn't need to do any of this stuff. You might be better off using one of the examples from the latest SDK as a basis instead.

Thank you for your example - this might be of help, as a reference, for future use.

During import, I had to add plenty of user include directories in the preprocessor section. Besides, I didnt touch Peer Manager/Flash Data Storage settings, since I am using sdk 11, sd130, and those figures might be different, and I couldn't actually understand that part to do it properly myself. Obviously, the only problem with my project was RTT enabled in debugging, which led to hardfaults, plus, probably, my bad undeerstanding of nRf Connect (I did rescan without stop scanning, and in this case it just doesn't display those devices that have already been found)
