Despite multiple attempts, the board does not appear to be recognized by the application.

We don&#39;t have experience with these boards particularly so I don&#39;t know what they show up as in your computer&#39;s device manager, but I would recommend you get one nRF52840 DK or similar that comes with a J-Link debugger so you can program these boards in the first place in order to test them correctly. The development kit should definitely work though.</p> <p>Best regards,</p> <p>Simon</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
