How did you connect the uart pins on your custom board to the host Serial com port where you have your terminal?

Out DK have an onboard debugger which also converts raw serial TX/RX/RTS/CTS data into a CDC COM port that can be virtualized on a USB port of your host system. I am assuming that your custom board does not have onboard debugger that can do this.

For the virtual com port to work, you need ALSO need to connect your custom board uart pins to the nRF52840 UART pins that are connected to the CDC port of the onboard debugger.
