nordic usb dongle + fruitymesh #172

Hi marius,

I think I oversee an option to enable fruitymesh with the nordic USB dongle. Whenever I upload the firmware, the USB dongle stays in DFU mode (and does not allow the connection via a serial terminal).

I found that the precompiled version github_sink_usb_nrf52840_merged.hexfrom you works out of the box with the USB dongle.

Any suggestions?

Thanks! Maaged

Hello,

we have not tested this Release with the nordic usb dongle using DFU. We have found this development board to be a bit fragile and hard to work with. We are using USB dongles of a different vendor internally. There are some problems with 1.8V as we are not activating this in the UICR.

Maybe this has something to do with it: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/nordic/short-range-guides/b/getting-started/posts/nrf52840-dongle-programming-tutorial

Good luck
