Lesson 3 and 4 nRF Fundamentals: I don't receive messages in the Console (terminal)

[Luiz Miranda]

Hi:

I don't receive any messages in the console during any of the exercises in Lesson 3 and Lesson 4 of the nRF Connect SDK Fundamentals.

No errors occurred during the Build.

I'm using Windows 11.

I used the Terminal from the SDK and from nRF Connect for Desktop v5.2.0.

I used the program "Hello Word nRF" to a console using UART, the nRF 52 DK was detected, I opened the Terminal and I also didn't receive any messages.

Do you have any idea where the problem might be?

Regards

Luiz Miranda

Hi Luiz Miranda ,

This sounds very strange.

What nRF Connect SDK version are you building with? Have you confirmed that you are on the correct branch on the GitHub repository? (main for v3.0.0)

Are you flashing the samples using VS Code or west?

Have you tried pressing the RESET button on the board while the Serial Terminal is connected to the port?

Please send me the merged.hex file for Lesson 4 Exercise 1 (full path ncs-fund/l4_e1_sol/build/merged.hex) so I can test the application on my board.

Please send me a screenshot of the Serial Settings on the Serial Terminal application in nRF Connect for Desktop, like below:

Hi:

Thanks for answering.

I was using branch ncs-fund-2.9.0-v2.7.0.
I downloaded main

Board Target: Nrf52dk/NRF52832

Atenciosamente

Hi:

VS Code Terminal is working. I receive messages from Nrf52 DK.

1-) Do you know why the exercises don't work with V3.0.0 and V2.9.0?

2--) Is there a way to step through a program line by line (debug a program line by line)?

Thanks and best regards

Luiz
