programming softdevice, bootloader and application on nrf51-DK

Hi folks,

I have been successful in getting sample code compiled using Keil u-vision and MBED and installing it on nrfDK-51. It has become so simple to install apps - all you do it connect to the USB port on your computer, the board shows up as a J-Link mass storage device (drive), copy and paste the hex file and it just runs perfectly... I love this and also the online MBED compiler is so cool...

Switching subjects, Could someone highlight the steps required to change the softdevice (from S110 to S220) on the device - I want to use ANT instead of BLE - I tried with nrfGo - but it always shows a timeout - I think I may be pressing the wrong buttons... Basically I want to play with ANT samples...

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated :)

thx!

  • The problem was my nRFGo Studio version. Older versions of nRFGo studio do not show up the Segger developement board as an option when you connect the nrf51-DK board to the USB cable of the windows PC.

    With nRFGo upgrade to version 1.17.1.3252 the board shows up and you can change the Program SoftDevice or the Program Application of the Program Bootloader. Shown below is the working copy...
