USB nRF52840 Dongle functionality

Question

Hi All. 
 I am aware that the USB nRF52840 Dongle does not support debugging but, can this device issue AT commands to a remote nRF52840 module in order to check the value of different variables or even set them with different values? Thanks so much for your time.

We do not have any AT command examples. The closest would be a CLI example that can be used to interact with the IC over USB interface. 
 The BLE Interactive Command Line Interface Example seems to do most of what you are requesting. It does not have a project for PCA10059 (nRF52840 Dongle), and it is not configured for using the USB port as backend for the CLI library (only RTT and UART), but both these things should be quite simple to modify. 
 Have a look at the Command Line Interface library documentation, and my comments in this thread .

Hi Jorgen. Thanks for your answer and let me ask you. Apart from the commands described in the BLE Interactive CLI Example, where could I find --if there is any-- a complete list of CLI commands I could issue in a nFR5 SDK v15.2.0 environment? Like for instance: Command Argument Description cancel Cancel the sweep or the carrier. data_rate Set the data rate. end_channel End the channel for the sweep. output_power Output power set. parameters_print Print current delay, channel, and other parameters. print_rx Print the received RX payload. start_channel Start the channel for the sweep or the channel for the constant carrier. start_duty_cycle_modulated_tx Duty cycle in percent (two decimal digits, between 01 and 99). start_rx Start RX. start_rx_sweep Start the RX sweep. start_tx_carrier Start the TX carrier. start_tx_modulated_carrier Start the modulated TX carrier. start_tx_sweep Start the TX sweep. time_on_channel Time on each channel (between 1 ms and 99 ms). toggle_dcdc_state Toggle DC/DC converter state. transmit_pattern Set transmission pattern. if you want to test the radio. Thanks so much.

The available CLI commands are specific to each example. You can create your own commands using the Command Line Interface library .
