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

  • For completeness:

    J-Link V6.22 fixes the crash that happens after the missing license dialog.

    Monitor Mode in general works on all platforms.

    Monitor Mode Debugging is an additional feature of J-Link that requires a "higher end" J-Link model (J-Link PLUS, J-Link ULTRA+, J-Link PRO) and may be used only for evaluation on other J-Link models, including the J-Link OBs.

    Evaluation of Monitor Mode can currently only be accepted through the dialog on Windows. On Linux and macOS, Monitor Mode can therefore currently not be evaluated/used.

    The free Nordic license covers Embedded Studio only, but no additional features (Monitor Mode, Flash Breakpoints, J-Flash) of J-Link.
