Hi,I have ibeacon (nRF51822) radioland-china.en.alibaba.com/.../long_range_300m_ibeacon_programable_nrf52822_beacons_bluetooth_4_0_tag_chip.html. I want to update the firmware in ibeacon to change the frequency of beacons transmitting,i found that, one way of update the firmware is OTA method .is it possible to update the firmware using segger or any method??

Hi,

From the diagram, SWDIO and SWCLK pads are exposed. You should then be able to update the firmware using a Segger degugger supporting the SWD interface. See chapter 11 of the nRF51 Reference Manual v3.0 for more information about the debugging interface.

If the firmware support (legacy) DFU, it could also be an alternative to update the firmware OTA.

Best regards,

Jørgen
