4.1 Uploading Code

  1. Write or Load Sketch: Bude example sketch or write your own code in the Arduino IDE.
  2. Verify Code: Click the "Verify" button (checkmark icon) to compile your code and check for errors.
  3. Loda Lambar: Click the "Upload" button (right arrow icon) to upload the compiled code to your XIAO nRF52840 Sense board.

4.2 Entering DFU Mode (Bootloader)

To upload new firmware or recover the board, you may need to enter DFU (Device Firmware Upgrade) mode:

  • Locate the small reset button on the board.
  • Double-click the reset button quickly. The onboard LED may change color or blink to indicate DFU mode.
  • In DFU mode, a new drive (often labeled "D" or similar) and a COM port should appear on your computer.

5. Kulawa

  • Tsaftacewa: Use a dry, soft cloth to clean the board. Avoid using liquids or solvents.
  • Ajiya: Store the board in an anti-static bag in a dry environment when not in use.
  • Sabunta Firmware: Regularly check the official Seeed Studio website for the latest firmware and board support package updates to ensure optimal performance and access to new features.

6. Shirya matsala

  • Board not recognized / "not in DFU mode" error:

    Try connecting the board to a USB 2.0 port instead of a USB 3.0 port. Some users have reported issues with USB 3.0 ports preventing proper DFU mode entry or recognition. Ensure you double-click the reset button to enter DFU mode.

  • Upload failures:

    Verify that the correct board and COM port are selected in the Arduino IDE. Ensure the board is in DFU mode if required for the upload process. Check your USB cable for proper connection and functionality.

  • Board becomes unresponsive or burns out:

    Ensure proper power supply. Avoid reverse polarity when connecting external batteries. If using a lithium battery, ensure correct JST cable connection. Over-current or incorrect wiring can damage the board. If issues persist, contact support.

  • Difficulty finding resources or documentation:

    Refer to the official Seeed Studio documentation and community forums for comprehensive guides and support. Bincika "Seeed Studio XIAO nRF52840 Sense documentation" online.
