Sniffer for nRF52 DK

[FA]

Hi,

I got one of nRF52 DKs. Is there any chance that we can use this DK similar to nRF51 DK as a sniffer in near future?

I tried to program the board with the HEX file for nRF51. It will say successfully programmed, but when the Sniffer application is running, it can not detect the board on the COM port. I checked and the board is on COM5, but I think maybe the HEX file need to be changed for nRF52.

We just needed to change UART pin mapping and it worked. We also need to include this changes in the HOST side. Try this hex on your nRF52 board, remember that device filtering is not working that is because HOST side needs some tuning and we will release it full after full testing nRF-Sniffer.zip

Thanks! It worked as you said, board will be detected and packets are shown, but filtering didn't worked. Waiting to receiver the update on host side too.

Hi. Also interested if this version of sniffer can capture long BLE packets (with PDU up to 257 bytes as in the Bluetooth 4.2 specification). Thanks.

Dear All,

I have the same situation, and wainting for the updated firmware to run the nrf52DK as sniffer.

Best regards, Laszlo

Hi , I tried to use the hex file in your nRF-Sniffer.zip, it's failed. When I choose the file to program with nRF-Sniffer.hex, the nRFgo Studio indicated that the softdevice size is 4194303kB... Then I programed it , also invalid softdevice, no value for CLENR0 specified.
