Updating the device

[BMW]

Our product uses the BMD-360 which uses your nrf52811. We are trying to add a feature that would allow us to update the chip from our controller, but it seems the file is too large for the MCU that we are using. The update hexfile is roughly 500kb but the MCU can hold about 229kb. Is there a way that we can still perform the update on the chip? We've tried compression but it only when down to 370kb.

Hi, 

Is there a way that we can still perform the update on the chip?

Unfortunately, no. I would suggest downsizing the package by disabling some modules like logs or buttons if they are unnecessary. If that still cannot help, you would need another chip with a larger space.

Switching over to bin file flashing as it removes a ton of other data rather than hex, but running into issues which I've opened a new ticket for.

Thanks for the update.
