I understand, Luigi.

I just tested it out myself and was able to flash the nRF9160 of the Thingy:91. Both with the GUI in VS Code and from the command line, using the nRF7002DK as debugger and powering the Thingy:91 through the USB port, by following this.

Before doing this, the Thingy:91 was set up as described in the previous reply.

Best regards,
Mathias

Hi Mathias,

thanks for the answer.

The reason why I want to power nRF9160 through Debug port is because I would like to debug the firmware using the debugger available on nRF7002 DK.

That's because I want to flash the firmware using Visual Studio Code.

Can you please help me on this? Thanks.

Kindly,

Luigi

Hi, Luigi!

Have you tried to connect to the nRF9160, while powering the Thingy:91 through its USB port instead of through the debug port? You find a guide on how to do it here.

Or is there a specific reason for why you want to power it through its debug port?

Best regards,
Mathias
