nrf9161 DK Board Configurator not connecting anymore/can not program the board

[PPinto]

I have mistakenly disabled Software Debugger (SWD) and wrote the configuration back to the board. Ever since board can not 

(1) Connect and get the configuration data using Board Configurator (v.0.3.8).

(2) Can not reprogram the board using NRF Connect Programmer.

Is there a way to recover the board from this mode.

Hello, 

Sorry for the late reply. What version of the nRF9161 are you using? Do you have access to an external programmer?

Kind regards,
Øyvind

I am running nRF9161-DK v1.0.0. I do not have access to an external programmer. But I do have another nrf9161-DK (But not a cable going between DEBUG Out and other boards DEBUG In)

Hi,

Øyvind is currently out of office so I will handle the case until he gets back.

Could you connect your board to the Board Configurator and ensure that this switch is enabled?

Kind regards,

Once that switch is turned off I can not reconnect using Board Configurator and re-enable that flag. I guess the turning off that switch totally dsiconnected the board from communicating even to the board configurator

It just stay like that without giving the screen to turn on the flag

My bad, I was too quick in reading the first item in your original description. I can confirm I see the same window as you after disabling the switch, restarting the application and reconnecting the device.

I will have another look and see if there's any other way for you to recover the device without an external programmer.

Kind regards,
Andreas

Is there a way I can use jupmer wires and connect another nrf9161DK or nrf52840DK and reprogram this board?
