Download

Download SDK: Software Development Kit (*1), Firmware (*2) and Writing Tool (*3) before the firmware writing.

Refer Chapter 4 in "Multi Sensor Board Beacon Firmware, CLI User Guide" for details.

(1) Download of Nordic SDK - Preparation of SoftDevice

    Prepare SoftDevice which is packaged in Nordic SDK.

    * SDK Folder which includes SoftDevice: SDK/components/softdevice/sXXX/hex

       Please see following table for the version number of sXXX.

    You need to download Nordic SDK of appropriate version for the application you use. Please download it from following URL.

(2) Preparation of Sample beacon firmware

    https://www.kagafei.com/jp/eng/products/wireless-modules/bluetooth/ey1sensor-kit-cli.html

    Download the proper HEX file from Sample beacon firmware.

    * HEX file is "XXXXXXX_EVB_CLI_beacon.hex" .

 

(3) Install of Writing Tool

    Download and install nRF Command Line Tools from following URL to write firmware into module evaluation board.

Firmware Writing

    Evaluation board , evaluation kit

    Connect evaluation board to PC and write firmware into evaluation board using commands.

 (Before the writing, you need to store the SoftDevice and the HEX file, which was downloaded in the step above, in any directory.)

Plsase watch a short video to learn the procedure of writing firmware into evaluation board using command window.

Sensor Selection/Communication

 Configure sensors by sending commands to evaluation board from PC.

If the writing is completed correctly, the evaluation board returns "OK" against the commands.

Sensing Evaluate Solution uses UART infterface for the communication of commands and responses.

 

Refer Chapter 5 and later in "Multi Sensor Board Beacon Firmware, CLI User Guide" for details of commands that supported by each sensor.
