JavaScript firmware for ng-beacon, based on Espruino.
- Copy all the files to the Raspberry Pi
- Connect your ng-beacon to the Raspberry Pi (see below)
- Run
./nrf51-old/flash.sh
Programming should take about 20-25 seconds (tested on Raspberry Pi 3). If you connected the ng-beacon correctly, you will see the following line in the output:
Info : nrf51.cpu: hardware has 4 breakpoints, 2 watchpoints
Once the process has finished, you should get an output similar to this:
wrote 240640 bytes from file espruino_1v91.78_ngbeacon.hex in 21.987272s (10.688 KiB/s)
** Programming Finished **
shutdown command invoked
This means that you have upgraded your firmware successfully!
You can now go to ngbeacon.io/config to connect to the beacon and complete the setup.
Follow the guide here for the wiring.
You will have to connect 4 wires: GND, SWDIO (labeled DIO), SWCLK (labeled CLK), 3.3V:
This is what it looks like when wired correctly:
