nRFUart Example - "Exception in StartMasterEmulator: -100"

I have tried using the pre-built nRFUart Example in the Master Emulator API (2.1.11.1) and get the above error

I also tried rebuilding - no change.

I do have a PCA10000 dongle with the Master Emulator loaded, and Master Control Panel works fine with it:

So what's missing?

Running on Win7-Pro.


Edit:

Updating the Question, as the comments can't show images or fixed-format text.

After the update, the nRFUart example looks like this:

But pressing the 'Connect' button does nothing at all.

  • Could it be some version mismatch with the Master Emulator dlls and nrfjprog dll? What if you try to download the newest version of the MCP with ME from here: www.nordicsemi.com/.../46143
    I got it working here.
