How to communicate nRF52832 by CLI and how can i create my own command??

[vprasath]

Hi,

Im having nRF52 DK and im using CLI example....i have configured through the putty by seeing this https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/22261/cli-autocomplete

how the communication is happening between putty and nRF52?

As im amateur in programming i am finding difficult to understand the code....can you please provide some documents to get the clear view of what is being done??

in code where can i define a command so that i can access in the command line interface???

Thank you.

Hi,

You can start with CLI documentation: http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v15.0.0/lib_cli.html?cp=4_0_0_3_10

What backend do you want to use ? I propose to start with RTT.

You can define new command or command tree (command + subcommands) in any file you wish, you need to only include nrf_cli.h.

Thanks Jakub

I have read the documentation and CLI started working in Putty Via RTT.

But still i couldn't able to work via uart or usb.i have followed the steps same as of the documentation.

Can i get documentation of the transport layer of RTT and how it is works???

in code where is RTT transport layer is lying and i would like to work with that!!

Thanks,

Vimal

Hi,

RTT is protocol created by Segger. You can read more about it here:

I saw that you asked about UART & USB problem in other thread. I think that resposne which has been given to you shall solve your problem. Below you can see an example of my PuTTY configuration for DK detected on COM port 24. 

All other PuTTY settings shall be according to the CLI documentation.

The RadioTest example would also be a good choice as a starting point.  It uses CLI via UART and the code is very simple.

Thanks Jakub,

Now the issue is rectified and i can able to with UART & USB.

Do you have any software architecture for this specfic CLI project??
