You could use any GPIO that is available to you. The DTM_ENABLE pin is optional so you don't need to use it, but it can be nice to have in a production line. It does not seem like the DTM_ENABLE pin is critical for you setup.

How have you connected the nRF52840DK?

We have a DTM app in the nRF Connect for Desktop that can be used with DK's. Se this section https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/samples/bluetooth/direct_test_mode/README.html#testing-with-nrf-connect-for-desktop

Which GPIO should I use? Now I try to use GPIO VCC, GND, TX, RX to enter the DTM, but it does not work. According to the datasheet, we must use DTM_ENABLE to enter DTM, so I want to ask that which GPIO can be used for DTM_ENABLE.

We only support UART interface in our DTM application. HCI is not supported.

There is a section for the Anritsu tester in the app note ; https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/struct_appnotes/struct/appnotes_nan34.html?cp=17_4

Use a couple of the GPIO pins for uart and connect to an FTDI cable to connect the DUT to the Tester.

And I use the Anritsu tester that can't connect nRF52480DK properly.And I test wit Anritsu's MT8852B, it shows eut error.

How can I solve it. Thanks!

I use the nRF5 SKD. If I use the tools that come with Nordic, how am I supposed to send commands. Using serial communication via TX and RX, and who should send the test pack to nRF52840? Thanks!

Hi,

Are you using the nRF5 SDK or the NCS SDK?

You could also reach out to R&S as we have little expertise on the CMW500, its likely that there is something with how the CMW500 communications with the nRF52840DK.
