My First test with nRF52840 on MS04SF7_V1.0 (from Minew dongle)

[ramon]

I have follow the nordic documentation but I can not get the blinky example on the dongle nRF52840

Hi

Yes, you should be able to flash the blinky example to your Dongle. Are you flashing the correct .hex file? It should be found in this path: YOUR_SDK_FOLDER\examples\peripheral\blinky\hex and should be named blinky_pca10059_mbr.hex by default. What SDK version are you using by the way?

Were you able to read the Dongle's flash in nRFConnect, so we can see what the overlapping files are?

Best regards,

Simon

Hi Simon

Thanks (again)

First, I can not read the dongle, on nRFConnect the read (boton) is not available. (image 3)

Then, I am doing this:

1. Dongle have a reset botton and I start this process with the LED linking in Blue color

2. I am using SDK nRF5 V16.3.0_59ac345

3 I flashed hex file on path \examples\peripheral\blinky\hex (image 2)

4. With nRFconnect V 3.2.0 and programmer V 1.2.3 I (image 1) connect to dongle (image 4)

5. Load hex file on File Memory Layout ( image 5 ready to write )

6 I got and error on writting hex file (image 6)

The dongle LED flash: green-blue-red repeatedly

I reset with push botton on dongle and discovere a new configiration on dongle (image 7) 

Thanks 

Ramón

Did anyone mention that this would be a whole lot simpler if you just got a Dev Kit?
