As you can see in the PC BLE Driver documentation, the nRF52840 Dongle can use connectivity firmware with the Nordic USB CDC serial port support. It is explained how to flash the connectivity firmware onto the Dongle in the Readme.md on GitHub.

Thank you,

I will check it. But I want to use the PCA10059 (nRF52840-Dongle) if possible , not the PCA10056 (nRF52840-DK)

As awneil says, the nRFConnect BLE app is based on the serialization firmware. However it is slightly modified compared to the stock serialization firmware in the SDK (see this patch).

You can flash the connectivity hex from pc-ble-driver repository (https://github.com/NordicSemiconductor/pc-ble-driver/blob/v4.1.1/hex/sd_api_v3/connectivity_4.1.1_usb_with_s132_3.1.0.hex) to your board, it should work with the nRF_USB port of the PCA10056 board.

Best regards,

Simon

Look at the PC-BLE-Driver:
