The SAMD21 family of devices does not include the SAM-BA Monitor as part of its ROM. Before using the SAM-BA GUI with the SAMD21 device, it is required to build and download the SAM-BA Monitor application. This can be done by using an SWD debugger.

  1. Run Atmel Studio. From the menu bar, select the Tools tab, then click the Device Programming menu selection.
  2. From the Device Programming window, select the Tool (for instance EDBG) and click Apply.
  3. Once the EDBG tool is running, click the Fuses tab.
  4. Set the NVMCTRL_BOOTPROT field to the default value of 0x07.
  5. Click the Memories tab and erase the chip by clicking the Erase now button.
  6. In the Flash field, fill in the path to the Bootloader image and click the Program button.
