Open the SDK nrf52840 on SEGGER

[Rian Mol]

I'm new with Nordic products, I bougth one nRF52840 and I tried to install Segger, to start programming.

I had a problem when I tried to open a SDK on Segger. When I try, show to me a warning message and after a erro (Images bellow).

I followed the nRF Connect Software guide "Getting Started Assistant", but didn't work.

I need help to start a programming the nRF52840.

I tried to use VsCode to generate a .HEX, but didn't work too

If you're new with the Nordic products and are going to use NCS, I highly recommend you to use the Toolchain Manager:

• Installing the Toolchain manager
• Installing the nRF Connect SDK
• When you've done that, click on Open IDE:

• Then click on File-->Open nRF Connect SDK project and choose the appropriate options. E.g:

So, I used this method. I had installed the Toolchain, the nRF Connect and followed everything like "Getting Started Assistant" said, but when I will open the SDK this message appears. I checked with "verify" all things on the list, and all of them are green, but didn't worked yet

I assume you're talking about the getting started assistant app:

However, don't use this.

Use the Toolchain Manager app instead:

This app (Toolchain Manager) is supported on both MacOS and Windows. So hopefully you're using one of them.

It worked, but now how can I get a .HEX file on Segger? I can compile, but I have no acess to .HEX file to upload a code on my nRF52840 through nRFConnect Programmer app.

[Simon]

You don't need to flash the sample using the programmer app (however, it is still possible if preferable for some reason). You can both build/compile and flash your sample using SEGGER.

To build/compile:

To program/flash (assuming you've connected the nRF52840 DK to your computer and turned it on):

Best regards,

I forgot to mention, but I'm using the nRF52840 Dongle PCB, and a option(Download ) show another message. 
I'll send a video, show what I need to do.
