RTOS/LAUNCHXL-CC2650: Issues in adding UART driver to simple_peripheral project

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC2650

Tool/software: TI-RTOS

Hi,

I have edited the simple_peripheral project of BLE_Stack_SDK as according to this guide till step 3 of 'Steps for out of box' section.But neither the characters typed from the terminal are echoed back to the terminal nor the simple_peripheral app is exposed(not showing in BLE Scanner application of my cell phone).

Here is the main function:-

int main()
{
#if defined( USE_FPGA )
  HWREG(PRCM_BASE + PRCM_O_PDCTL0) &= ~PRCM_PDCTL0_RFC_ON;
  HWREG(PRCM_BASE + PRCM_O_PDCTL1) &= ~PRCM_PDCTL1_RFC_ON;
#endif // USE_FPGA
  
  /* Register Application callback to trap asserts raised in the Stack */
  RegisterAssertCback(AssertHandler);

  PIN_init(BoardGpioInitTable);

#ifdef CC1350_LAUNCHXL
  // Enable 2.4GHz Radio
  radCtrlHandle = PIN_open(&radCtrlState, radCtrlCfg);
  
#ifdef POWER_SAVING
  Power_registerNotify(&rFSwitchPowerNotifyObj, 
                       PowerCC26XX_ENTERING_STANDBY | PowerCC26XX_AWAKE_STANDBY,
                       (Power_NotifyFxn) rFSwitchNotifyCb, NULL);
#endif //POWER_SAVING
#endif //CC1350_LAUNCHXL

#if defined( USE_FPGA )
  // set RFC mode to support BLE
  // Note: This must be done before the RF Core is released from reset!
  SET_RFC_BLE_MODE(RFC_MODE_BLE);
#endif // USE_FPGA
  
  // Enable iCache prefetching
  VIMSConfigure(VIMS_BASE, TRUE, TRUE);

  // Enable cache
  VIMSModeSet(VIMS_BASE, VIMS_MODE_ENABLED);

#if !defined( POWER_SAVING ) || defined( USE_FPGA )
  /* Set constraints for Standby, powerdown and idle mode */
  // PowerCC26XX_SB_DISALLOW may be redundant
  Power_setConstraint(PowerCC26XX_SB_DISALLOW);
  Power_setConstraint(PowerCC26XX_IDLE_PD_DISALLOW);
#endif // POWER_SAVING | USE_FPGA

  /* Initialize ICall module */
  ICall_init();

  /* Start tasks of external images - Priority 5 */
  ICall_createRemoteTasks();
  
  /* Kick off profile - Priority 3 */
  // priority changed to 2 for uart
  GAPRole_createTask();

  SimpleBLEPeripheral_createTask();

  
  /* NPI UART Example Task - Priority 2 */
  NPITask_createTask(2);    
  ti_sysbios_knl_Semaphore_Handle appSem = Semaphore_create(0, NULL, NULL);


  /* enable interrupts and start SYS/BIOS */
  BIOS_start();

  return 0;
}



The main.c file is also attached herein for easy verification.

 * @fn          AssertHandler
 *
 * @brief       This is the Application's callback handler for asserts raised
 *              in the stack.  When EXT_HAL_ASSERT is defined in the Stack
 *              project this function will be called when an assert is raised, 
 *              and can be used to observe or trap a violation from expected 
 *              behavior.       
 *              
 *              As an example, for Heap allocation failures the Stack will raise 
 *              HAL_ASSERT_CAUSE_OUT_OF_MEMORY as the assertCause and 
 *              HAL_ASSERT_SUBCAUSE_NONE as the assertSubcause.  An application
 *              developer could trap any malloc failure on the stack by calling
 *              HAL_ASSERT_SPINLOCK under the matching case.
 *
 *              An application developer is encouraged to extend this function
 *              for use by their own application.  To do this, add hal_assert.c
 *              to your project workspace, the path to hal_assert.h (this can 
 *              be found on the stack side). Asserts are raised by including
 *              hal_assert.h and using macro HAL_ASSERT(cause) to raise an 
 *              assert with argument assertCause.  the assertSubcause may be
 *              optionally set by macro HAL_ASSERT_SET_SUBCAUSE(subCause) prior
 *              to asserting the cause it describes. More information is
 *              available in hal_assert.h.
 *
 * input parameters
 *
 * @param       assertCause    - Assert cause as defined in hal_assert.h.
 * @param       assertSubcause - Optional assert subcause (see hal_assert.h).
 *
 * output parameters
 *
 * @param       None.
 *
 * @return      None.

Thanks in advance.

Note:-

1) I found this too and had gone through it for better understanding.

2) I'm using ZOC7 as the terminal emulator.
