nRF52840 dongle, nRF Connect, Programmer, ERROR Reopen device failed

cws

Attempting to program an nRF52840 dongle with sniffer_nrf52840dongle_nrf52840_7cc811f.hex, using nRF Connect Programmer v1.4.8, on Windows 7

Upon clicking "Write", the red LED blinks quicker briefly, then goes out, and the log ends with "ERROR Reopen device failed: Timeout while waiting for device  D3C10D53F485 to be attached and enumerated".  After this, none of the nRF Connect programs detect the device until I press Reset, putting it back in bootloader mode.

Here is the log produced by Programmer:

Any help would be appreciated.

Also, I am doing this in the hope that I can use this with wireshark to detect extended advertisements from a nRF52810 device.  Can you confirm whether or not nRF Sniffer supports sniffing extended advertisements with the nRF52840?

Thanks,

Craig

    Hi Craig, 

    The log is as expected. The device will reset when the upgrade completes and the dongle will no longer show up in nRF Connect because the application used DFU Trigger Library is used, as it is no longer in DFU mode. Then the dongle can start to sniff. If you Install nRF Sniffer correctly, you will see the frame as Figure 2. in the Running nRF Sniffer when you open the Wireshark.  

    Can you confirm whether or not nRF Sniffer supports sniffing extended advertisements with the nRF52840?

    Extended advertising is not yet supported by the nRF Sniffer. You may be able to see the initial packet ADV_EXT_IND but not the actual data extended packets, but not the actually extended packets that follow. See the explanation in this post.
