 Interestingly, other boards (nRF9151-SMA-DK and nRF9151-DK) work fine with the identical setup.

&lt;p&gt;No, the working DK should use the DEBUG OUT connector, and the other one I believe should use DEBUG IN.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Both DKs should of course be powered, so if you don&amp;#39;t have an external power supply you should connect both DKs with usb.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That should not be necessary.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#39;t think so.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yes, or nrfutil.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: nRF9151 SMA DK locked</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/543011?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 21 Jul 2025 12:13:49 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:86f72754-b89a-422b-ad91-55ef1663efef</guid><dc:creator>abdukhair</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Hakon,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;log says you are using JLink version 8.34. Can you try v8.18 instead? It is the recommended version to use and have been tested by Nordic.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
