uploading soft device

I am new to BLE development and have started by installing SEGGER Embedded Studio Release 3.30 and have a J-LINK edu usb device and a Core51822 board from Wavetek. I understand that I have to download the soft device to the 51822 but of the available methods which should I use. Is it possible to do it from within Embedded Studio or should I use JFlash or nRFgo studio.

  • Hi Jim!

    You can choose to the method that you want.
    Both nRFGo Studio and nrfjprog can be used to flash the softdevice to your device.

    However, there is also possible to do this directly in SEGGER Embedded Studio.
    In SES, go to Target and make sure that the J-link is connected.
    When connected, go to Download File -> Download Intel Hex File... -> and choose the softdevice to flash to your device.
    The softdevice can also be added to load together with your application using the additional load file.
    Take a look at this youtube video at: 04.10 minutes where the additional load file is and how to add your softdevice is explained.

    The youtube video is a part of our:

    Let me know if you have any questions.
    Best regards,
    Joakim.
