Thread NCP SPI pin configuration

[jebentancour]

I can not find where to change the default pins to connect the nrf52840 to the rpi over SPI.

The default pins are

SPI pin     Raspberry Pi pin     nRF52833, nRF52840 or nRF52811 pin
MOSI     pin 19 (GPIO10)     P0.04
MISO     pin 21 (GPIO09)     P0.28
SCK     pin 23 (GPIO11)     P0.03
CSN     pin 26 (GPIO07)     P0.29
INT     pin 40 (GPIO21)     P0.30

In the infocenter sais "The SPI pins on the Development Kit (nRF52833, nRF52840 or nRF52811) can be configured when building the example. " but i can not find where are they configured.

Please help

Hi,

This statement is not entirely accurate. The SPI/UART pins are set in the platform-config.h file in OpenThread, as described on this page. Changing this config requires you to rebuild the OpenThread libraries.

Best regards,
