how to print log message throuh the serial port(UART Output)

[juya]

Build Configuration

Board : Thingy:91(PCA2003)

Board Target : thingy91_nrf9160_ns

nRF Connect SDK : v2.0.1

I was trying to run "hello world" template project on my Thingy 91 board. The build was successful and flasing image(app_signed.hex) through Programmer Tool.

However, I was not able to manage to see printk() message through the serial port.(UART output) using Putty.

I have tried both COM3 and COM4, which are related to Thingy 91 in my PC.

Are there more config options to enable logging through serial port(UART Port)?  or Am I missing steps to see messages?

I have checked the following links:

UART connecting : https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/2.1.0/nrf/gs_testing.html?highlight=putty#id4

flashing : https://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/ug_thingy91_gsg.html#id42

Hello,

You can refer to this tutorial from Nordic which clearly explains about printing messages to the console.

nRF Connect SDK v2.1.0 with the toolchain v2.1.0 does not work any single example. with Thingy 91.

However, when I rollback the version to v2.0.2 and clean install and build on my setup. it works all magically.

Can you guys double check if v.2.1.0 has a hidden bug with Thingy91?

I have tried multiple PC envirenment and Thingy 91 board. it was all the time same problem.

I hope you are working with Toolchain  v1.2.1 and NCS v2.1.0
