Hi,
I do have a NRF51-DK and want to use it as a external programmer. I connected it to the OUTPUT Port which worked fine, then I flashed the mbed firmware on it because it was a mess getting it to work on mac. After that, I couldn't program my external device, just the one on the Board. So I cut SB9 to disconnect the onboard MCU. All I get now is a SWD error since it can't recognize the device.
It worked fine on the old green NRF51822 DK though.
Any suggestions?
