Error configuring OpenThread Radio Co-processor on nRF52840 Dongle

[mou-33]

I bought this device becouse I want to use it as Open Thread Border Router.

I followed the steps on your website: https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/matter/openthread_rcp_nrf_dongle.html

In debian I had 2 errors on the step number 4, this two errors are related to CMake.

In windows with a powershell I don't know how to execute the python script.

Also I can't use the nrfutil, I read on the internet that error is due to python.

I don't know how to configure this nRF52840 as an open thread border router.

I would be extremely grateful If you share with me the firmware and the combination buttons for use Simplicity Studio 5 or Flash Programmer 2 and flash the firmware or you tell me how can I avoid the script problems. THANKS A LOT.

Hi,

You can try to program this .hex file with the nRF Connect for Desktop Programmer application.

ot-rcp.hex

See https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ug_nc_programmer/UG/nrf_connect_programmer/ncp_programming_dongle.html for information on how to use the Programmer app with the nRF52840 dongle.

Best regards,

Didrik

Dear Didrik Rokhoug

Thank you for the .hex file.

I tried to program nRF52840 dongle according to your suggestion, but the error occurred as below whne I selected nRF52840 Dongle in Programmer app.

 - Error when fetching device versions: readFwInfo error (Origin: "Error when running nrfdl_fw_read_info")

Could you please tell me how to solve the error?

Best regards.

Hi Koichi,

This error is not directly related to the original issue of the case.

To keep DevZone tidy, could you create a new ticket with your issue?
(With link to this case in the new ticket)
