You need to build the project to generate the image.

Hi Amanda,

When I navigate to > build_nrf9260dk_nrf9160ns zephyr doesn't appear as an option. The only things listed are CMakeFiles and Kconfig. Am I missing some additional software? Thanks so much for your help

You could download Zephyr/merge.hex via Target > Download File > Download Intel Hex File > build_nrf9160dk_nrf9160ns\zephyr\merged.hex

Hi,

The board version on the sticker is the PCA10090. I connected the board via Target >> connect j-link and that was successful. However, there is no option to download Zephyr/merge.hex in the Target dropdown menu. The closest option is 'download zephyr/zephyr.elf'.

Hi,

Are you using PCA10090? What is the board version on the white sticker?

Please connect the board via Target -> Connect J-Link, then download the image via Target -> Download Zephyr/merge.hex. If it still fails, please upload the output log. Thanks.

Regards,
Amanda

Hi Amanda,

I am using the blinky sample you linked. The output log says:

"Programming 0.1 KB of addresses 00004438 — 000044cb

Timeout while preparing target, RAMCode did not respond in time. (PC = 0x00000000, CPSR = 0x00000000, LR = 0x21000003)!

Failed to prepare RAMCode using RAM

Failed to download application.

Generic error.

Please check J-Link and target connection.

Download failed"

I set the settings as the image provided and I still got the same error.

Do you have any idea of where to go from here?

Thank you!

Hi,

Are you using this Blinky sample with NCS v1.6.1?

What is the output log after you press OK on the window of "create_nordic_project.py failed (1)”?

Try to delete the build folder for nRF9160 and set it as
