MCP and NRF52 dk

[binhnguyens]

Hello,

I am using the nrf 52 dk with the soft 3.00. I am doing the Beacon Transmitter Sample Application from infocenter.nordicsemi.com/index.jsp.

I was able to compile and build the program and load it onto the nrf52. I have version 3.10 of master control panel from www.nordicsemi.com/.../38908

I was able to connect the port but the MCP doesn't recognize the master emulator.

Can anyone help suggest a new program/solution

Hi @binhnguyens, I had used MCP up until a few months ago, but have since switched over to nRFConnect. Maybe someone from Nordic can verify, but I believe they are phasing out MCP in favor of nRFConnect. Can you install that application and verify if this solves your issue?

Hi,

Master Control Panel (MCP) does not support the nRF52 DK, only nRF51 devices are supported. As @bert mention, nRF Connect have replaced MCP, and MCP will no longer be updated/maintained. You can read more about nRF Connect in this blog post.

Best regards,

Jørgen

Is there any example code or tutorial that includes nrf 52 dk and the nrf connect?

Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any starter guide with nRF52 DK and nRF connect. nRF connect should work similar to MCP in most cases, and you should be able to figure out how to do the same operations by reading the nRF Connect documentation.
