I am having very limited knowledge in flashing devices, infact this is the first time I was doing it, pls conider Step 1: I bough PCA10040 and installed nRFGo software in windows 10 "62-bit"machine.
Step 2: Opened NRFgo program and able to see the Motherboard Seeger Image1
Step 3: Connected the pings as per the image 2.
Step 4: Open the Nrfgo and first tried using the "Program Softdevice" as per the image 3 I have used the custom built “Hex” file and clicked on program I got a below error message Issue: invalid softdevice, data found in region above the value indicated by clendro
Step 5: Then I opened the “ S110_nrf_8.00” “hex” file I tried it has updated successfully.
Step 6: Tried to load the program on the Nrf board using "Program Application on Nrf5x Device" the program has loaded on the board, it has loaded the file successfully
