This confirms that the Eval board is properly recognized.

While still in the J-Link Commander session, save the Rigado-programmed public MAC
address by typing in:
savebin mac_addr.bin 0x10001080 8
11.
Save the file
mac_addr.bin
to a convenient location for future use.
12.
Exit the J-Link session by typing
exit
13.
At this point, a file titled mac_addr.bin will be saved in the current directory. The contents will
contain the MAC address in little-endian format:
33 22 11 93 54 94 FF FF
to correspond to the address
94:54:93:11:22:33
. The last two
FF
values are only fillers to
complete the two 4-byte reads. Rigado MAC addresses begin with the IEEE-assigned Company
ID (
94:54:93
). The remaining bytes are printed on the 2D and human-readable label on the
module. See the
MAC Address Provisioning KB article
14.
This file may be used to restore the MAC address after performing an erase or recover with the
J-Link command
loadbin mac_address.bin 0x10001080

For this guide, the nRF SDK v15.3.0 Heart Rate Service example for the BMD-340-EVAL will be used.
1.
Navigate to the location of the heart rate example from the SDK, typically
<unzipped location>\nRF5_SDK_15.3.0_59ac345\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_hrs
2.
Select the DK Board, SoftDevice and IDE directories. Here is the full path:
<unzipped location>\
nRF5_SDK_15.3.0_59ac345\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_hrs\ pca10056\s140\ses
3.
Open the project file (
ble_app_hrs_pca10056_s140.emProject
) to start the Segger Embedded
Studio IDE
4.
Build the project (
<F7>
)
5.
Once the build is successful, you can download the application code onto the module Board
(
Target | Download ble_app_hrs_pca10056_s140
)
The first time the board is loaded, both the SoftDevice and the application will be downloaded
to the module. Once the SoftDevice is loaded, subsequent downloads will only transfer the
application. If you need to change SoftDevice versions, repeat section
Error! Reference
source not found.
Error! Reference source not found.
Error! Reference source not found.
.
6.
On a mobile device, open the nRF Toolbox application. Select the Heart Rate Monitor.
7.
Tap Connect. You should see the Eval board advertising as
Nordic_HRM.
8.
Select this device to see the simulated heart rate being transmitted from the BMD-300.
