Hi, you need some how to power development kit and also to connect GPOS if you want to interact with external hardware. We ended with the same problem and this is why developed this main board. You can give it a try. It will power your dev kit and will allow you to interact with external world.

To clean things up, I'd be happy if you could evaluate the answer you have received and accept it if you feel it's sufficient. If not, it might be useful to expand your question a little and provide further information.

If you take a look at the hardware files for the development kit, you can find schematics for the board. As far as I can see, everything should be working correctly if you connect pin 2 on K2 to GND and pin 2 and 3 on K1 to VCC, ~3.3 V. Pin 2 on K1 is sufficient to get the chip running, but you need to conenct pin 3 as well to make the Segger see the voltage.

When I test this, I'm able to program the chip with nRFgo Studio as usual.
