Hi There, I’ve just started trying to flash my project work locally over usb as it’s too time consuming to flash the core with the IDE over the cloud and I’m missing versioning and some advanced editing capabilities. I have a project with a number of files that include support for nrf24l01’s over …

A stab in the dark here. When compiling locally, you have to #include "application.h" At the top of your application file.

Which local branch of the firmware are you using? If it works good with the online, try checking out the compile-server2 branch for all 3 repos and rebuilding. git fetch git checkout compile-server2 Try these examples for NRF24 stuff, they should compile for you follow the instructions: …

Hi @miniman42 You are seeing the SOS panic code. The number of flashes after the SOS tells you which panic you have and if it is 8 flashes, that means OutOfHeap. You must have dynamically allocated objects or data and you were close to being out of memory on the webIDE but just under enough to wo…

[image] bko: arm-none-eabi-size --format=berkeley core-firmware.elf Thanks @bko , RAM looks to be the problem when using master as you suggest. It's currently just over 16K atm and it does work with the compile-server2 as @BDub suggested. master: arm-none-eabi-size --format=berkeley …

Hi again @bko , Just done a round of tests with 500 bytes less ram usage myside and cannot get master branch to work properly - seems like there is a bug there somewhere. I now get an SOS panic with a single flash which seems to indicate a “HardFault” from the src…?? Is there anything that I can do…

Hi @miniman42 I have not built from master in a day or two–I have been webIDE’ing. Maybe @zachary or @Dave can comment on the master branch status. I am not sure how much anyone can help without knowing what libraries you are using–your problem could easily be there as well.

Hi @miniman42 , You can totally set the "DEBUG_BUILD" environment variable to 'y' to get better debug flashing output. I can't find official documentation on those parameters, so I'm guessing that's still in the queue, but there are threads about them. Right now I think this is the best documentat…

[image] Latest firmware released to Spark Build DEBUG_BUILD Thanks - the debug is really handy... :slight_smile:

That looks a very good diagnostic job guys. It also illustrates something that is bothering me a bit - the Spark core software is getting better and better but it is leaving less and less space for our applications. Un-commenting out the #define USE_ONLY_PANIC in Spark_Firmware_Driver config.h buys…

@phec For memory/processor intensive applications like signal processing, may I suggest using a co-processor to do the sampling/filtering and using the Core as a communication channel to relay back the information via the cloud? I know this sounds a little counter-intuitive, but you might get best …
