[bhaskarch]

Hello,

I purchase nRF51822 Bluetooth Smart Beacon kit.

How to load the new program into this board.

I downloaded nRF51822 Bluetooth Smart Beacon kit firmware files and installed nRF51822_beacon_firmware_1.1.1.

I have ST-link programmer . How to load firmware into nRF51822  board using ST-link programmer.

Next i Need to develop one custom board using nRF51822 QFAB  same as nRF beacon kit.

Please Suggest me.

In custom nrf51822 board how to load softdevice hex file through ST-link programmer.

Regads,

Bhaskar

Hi,

You could have a look at this blog post. OpenOCD might also be an option. Like @awneil say, this is not created for flashing nRF51 ICs, and it is not something Nordic supports. Our development kits come with built-in J-Link debugger that you can use for programming external boards.

Best regards,
Jørgen

Thank for your reply  Jorgen Holmefjord,

I have nRF52 DK kit.

I need to do work custom board i.e nRF51822 QFAB

I need to do custom nRF51822 QFAB same as  nRF51822 Smart Beacon kit.

 Downloaded nRF51822 Bluetooth Smart Beacon kit firmware files and installed.

Step1:

Custom board NRF51822 QFAB is connected P19  of nRF52 DK kit.

I installed nRF go studio. 

i loaded s110_nrf51822_7.1.0_softdevice .hex in  softdevice of  nRF51822 QFAB

opened source code of ble_app_beacon through keil  and changed  nRF51822 XXAC to our custom board  nRF51822 QFAB

 SOFTDEVICE_HANDLER_INIT(NRF_CLOCK_LFCLKSRC_RC_250_PPM_4000MS_CALIBRATION, true); is chaged in Initialize the SoftDevice handler module

Compiled and loaded the Application file in nRF51822 QFAB custom board.

But Bluetooth is not enabled.

Please suggest any code change or hardware change
