How to modify NRF52832 code during mass production

[SaiTeja]

Hello, 

In an application I am using NRF52832 IC as central. Before uploading code in every board, I need to change the device name and compile. This process is consuming significant amount of time. I am compiling the code using keil software and using Jlink debugger for loading the code.

Is there any anyway to speed up the process?

You don't need to recompile!

It is common practice in production programming to add a unique serial number as part of the production programming process.

Andy decent production programmer should have the facility to do this.

You could do it yourself by editing the Hex file.

Or, as  Fred says, build the facility into your application to interact with your production test.

Hi awneil, 

Thanks for your reply. 

Can we use this programmer for production programming?  Does this have feature to add unique serial number in code during mass production?
