Starting with NRF51 DK and Eclipse..

Hi I got my new NRF51 DK. I was able to test it with blinky using mbed. I had to add the add the device nRF51-DK. then compile it and drag the .hex file into the mbed drive.

It worked, fine. I was able to blink the LED. But If I keep the device as nRF51, then it did not work.

Now I want to test it on Eclipse. but I dont see a way to configure Eclipse to compile for nRF51 or nRF51-DK. Do I need to do it?

When I tried to compile and drag the .hex file into the "mbed" drive.. nothing was happening.

So how do I Eclipse to compile for nRF51-DK?

Thanks Ashwin

  • I had to convert it from mbed to jlink. I got it resolved now.

    I had to reset the device..

    1. hold the reset button and power cycle. -> now it does not show up as mbed device.

    2. then upload jlink.bin file.. (just dragging it into the drive. in the file-explorer) -> dont remember where I got this bin file. But somebody can post the link.

    Now its visible on nRFgo.
