Hi,

This seems like a very basic question but I can seem to find the answer anywere. I have been successful in upgrading the stm32 firmware as per the instructions in the wiki, but I was not sure about the nrf firmware.

Can I just do exactly the same but point it to the nrf bin file? It wasn't very clear on that point. It does mention a zip file where I can put both firmwares along with a manifest. Should I make that zip file with the manifest?

Regards,

It is a very valid question and we are lacking some documentation. The bootloader dialog in the cfclient will take any *.bin file as the STM32F4 firmware. The nRF51 firmware is not meant to be updated that often. To flash that, one needs to create a zip file with a manifest telling it what it is.

To make it easier I just did a new release with the nRF51 firmware included. If you want to flash your own file like that you can just replace the nRF51 bin file in the zip.

It is also possible to flash the nRF51 over Crazyradio directly from the build environment with
