Monitor mode debug w/ nRF52840, SES 3.3, SDK14.1.0, BLE S140

Hi,

Is anyone successfully using MMD with the nRF52840 PVK, SES 3.3, recent SDK (e.g., 14.1.0) and S140 softdevice?

I followed the steps in this blog post both on Win10x64 and under Ubuntu 16.04x64, but in neither case have I had any luck. On Windows SES itself crashes after I dismiss the "monitor mode missing license" dialog and click Debug->Go. Under Ubuntu SES generates a log message complaining about the missing monitor mode debug license, and then it appears to simply run in "halt" mode as before.

I added two comments to the blog post yesterday (11/16/2017) describing my setup (with screen shots) but thought I'd also ask here in case this "Questions" section of the form gets more visibility.

Thanks! Don

  • Hi Don,

    Monitor Mode and Flash Breakpoints can currently only be evaluated on Windows. We might add an option to enable evaluation on Linux, too. Otherwise you will need a J-Link PLUS or higher, which is required for non-evaluation use of monitor mode anyhow.

    As Joakim we were not able to reproduce the crash on Windows when clicking on Yes nor No in the dialog, yet. Did you send the crash reports with a comment that mentions MMD? Then we will check what went wrong.

    @chadkennedy: If you compile a project for a Nordic device and the network adapter the license is locked to is present, you should not get the No installed activation popup. If that still comes up, can you provide your project file and the contents / screenshot of the License Manager -> Manage Activations and Licnese Manager -> Diagnose Problems

    Regards Johannes
