Switch Science mbed HRM1017¶

Hardware¶

Platform Nordic nRF51: The Nordic nRF51 Series is a family of highly flexible, multi-protocol, system-on-chip (SoC) devices for ultra-low power wireless applications. nRF51 Series devices support a range of protocol stacks including Bluetooth Smart (previously called Bluetooth low energy), ANT and proprietary 2.4GHz protocols such as Gazell.

Configuration¶

Please use hrm1017 ID for board option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):

[env:hrm1017]
platform = nordicnrf51
board = hrm1017

You can override default Switch Science mbed HRM1017 settings per build environment using board_*** option, where *** is a JSON object path from board manifest hrm1017.json. For example, board_build.mcu, board_build.f_cpu, etc.

[env:hrm1017]
platform = nordicnrf51
board = hrm1017

; change microcontroller
board_build.mcu = nrf51822

; change MCU frequency
board_build.f_cpu = 16000000L

Uploading¶

Switch Science mbed HRM1017 supports the next uploading protocols:

• cmsis-dap

• mbed

Default protocol is cmsis-dap

You can change upload protocol using upload_protocol option:

[env:hrm1017]
platform = nordicnrf51
board = hrm1017

upload_protocol = cmsis-dap

Debugging¶

PIO Unified Debugger - “1-click” solution for debugging with a zero configuration.

You can switch between debugging Tools & Debug Probes using debug_tool option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File).

Switch Science mbed HRM1017 has on-board debug probe and IS READY for debugging. You don’t need to use/buy external debug probe.
