App crashes in ble_stack_init()

[MichaelNordicUser]

I am trying to execute code that broadcasts (uses the Soft Device Ble stack) on target nrf52832 boards connected to the PCA10040.

I am successful uploading a program (that does not use Soft Device) and have it execute on three different target nrf52832 boards. THAT IS GOOD. C:\Devel\io\BlueBLE\Nordic\sdk_Nov_27\original\examples\peripheral\blinky\pca10040\s132\arm5_no_packs

I can upload Soft Device from the Command Line: C:\Devel\io\BlueBLE\Nordic\sdk_Nov_27\components\softdevice\s132\hex\s132_nrf52_5.0.0_softdevice.hex -f nrf52

I can upload from the ble_app_blinky_pca10040_s132.uvprojx project: C:\Devel\io\BlueBLE\Nordic\sdk_Nov_27\original\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_blinky\pca10040\s132\arm5_no_packs

The software crashes in ble_stack_init() when it attempts to interact with the Ble stack.

The software works when running in the DK.

"The software crashes in ble_stack_init() when it attempts to interact with the Ble stack."

crashes how? What's the error returned internally which causes a crash? What kind of 'crash' is it? What's different between your nRF52 boards and the DK?

You need to put more information in your posts or else we're all just guessing
