BLE Hands on Getting Started Build and Flash SoC Thermometer - joe-possum/IoT-Developer-Boot-Camp GitHub Wiki

In this exercise we use Simplicity Studio to build the Bluetooth - SoC Thermometer project and flash it to the device. Since this procedure is very similar to the steps in the Gecko Bootloader exercise, instructions here will be less detailed.

In the Launcher perspective, select the WSTK and from the "EXAMPLE PROJECTS & DEMOS" tab, filter for Example Projects of Bluetooth technology. You should find a project with the name "Bluetooth - SoC Thermometer" or "Bluetooth - SoC Themometer (Mock)", possibly both. The "Mock" version simulates measurments, while the other uses real measurements. There are additional similarly named projects like "Bluetooth - SoC Thermometer FreeRTOS" or "Bluetooth - SoC Thermometer Micrium", these include a Real Time Operating System. We want to start with the simpler version. Note the "View Project Documentation" link, this will contain useful information for further study.

As with the Gecko Bootloader project, click the CREATE button and click FINISH in the configuration dialog.

Select the project root in the Project Explorer panel and click Build icon. Since you now have multiple projects open in the project Explorer, it is important to indicate which project is to be built.

Again a Binaries folder should appear and flash one of the encoded images to the device (right click on image).

Program the device.

The device is now fully programmed. Verfy with EFR Connect exercise. In the following exercise we will examine the code.
