How to update JLink OB firmware on PCA10001?

[joc]

Hi, after I updated my MAC OS X to the latest version EI Capitan, I found my JLink commander cannot connect to the PCA10001 board again even with the Jlink commander updated to the latest. After some search work, I speculate that the JLink OB firmware is too old which is V7.0 for me. So I try to update the JLink OB firmware, but don't know how to ?

I was told by someone the firmware would be prompted to upgrade autmomatically with the nrfgo 1.15, but it didn't happen to me...

Hi,

The firmware should be continuously updated when you update your segger installation. In my PCA10001, this is the firmware version:

Firmware: J-Link OB-SAM3U128 V1 compiled Aug 28 2015 19:26:23

Apparently, there has been some changes to the USB module in El capitan (based on google hits), where some users has to connect their debugger to a windows machine running the latest Segger installation to get the firmware update.

Could you try updating this using a linux/win PC and see if starts working on El Capitan?

Best regards, Håkon

Yes, I had tried updating Segger installation on PC but there's no Jlink OB update followed...Btw, the board works well on PC.
