RE: N550 default ANT bootloader ANT-WP

Hi Vidar!

Actually the N550 comes with ANT-WP bootloader + ANT-networkprocessor application installed.

If I pull pin (011) high i get the CPU into bootloader mode :)

So now I am trying updating my device - but no success

I can find the device in the OTA Updater application: where it connects to the devices and lists all kinds of stuff:

ANTFS OTA Update Manufacturer ID: 255 Product ID: 1 Serial Number: 1921703467 Hardware version: 0 Product identifier: 0 Application Version: BAW4.01B00 Wireless Stack Version: AXX5.00B00 Bootloader Version: BFD2.00B00 Free Upload Space: 190464

But when I select 3 hex files for bootloader, application and softdevice and try uploading,

I get the following message:

Update failed: Image upload failed

So what am i doing wrong?

Hi,

I'm not familiar with this particular module, but modules are typically shipped blank. One easy way of confirming this is to connect a J-link programmer to the kit and use nRFgo studio to get a visual representation of what's stored in flash:

Otherwise you need to load the ANT stack and bootloader( \nRF5_SDK_11.0.0-2.alpha_bc3f6a0\examples\dfu\experimental_ant_bootloader) with a programmer in order to enable DFU for subsequent uploads. More documentation on the bootloader can be found here in the SDK documentation.
