Writing variable in RAM after programming

[Andreas]

Hello,

i want to write a global unsigned long variable in RAM after programming the device. The Use-Case is to set the clock value to the actual time. So the new unsigned long value will be generated from the host PC from the actual time. This new value should be set via the SWD interface. Is that possible by using the --ramwr option from nrfjprog.exe? We will use the Segger Flasher ARM.

Thanks and regards, BTprogrammer

Writing 12345678 -> 20002990
J-Link>mem32 0x20002990, 1
20002990 = 12345678 

that happens to be an NRF52 board because it was on the table, but it works fine as you can see
