Working with the zip version ============================ 1. Ensure that all required software is installed. See the Get started section in the nRF51 Development Kit User Guide or the nRF52 Series documentation (both available at http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com) for detailed information. 2. Download the repository file nRF5_SDK_x.x.x_xxxxxxx.zip (for example, nRF5_SDK_11.0.0_1a2b3c4.zip). 3. Extract the .zip file to the directory that you want to use to work with the nRF5 SDK. 4. Install the nRF5 MDK: - If you use Keil 5, open an example project. Keil will then prompt you to install the nRF_DeviceFamilyPack. If Keil does not prompt you, open the Pack Installer, click the Check For Updates button, and install the latest nRF_DeviceFamilyPack. - If you use Keil 4, double-click the nRF5x_MDK_x_x_x_Keil4.msi file in the extracted directory to install the MDK. - If you use IAR, double-click the nRF5x_MDK_x_x_x_IAR.msi file in the extracted directory to install the MDK. - If you use GCC, the MDK is delivered with the SDK and does not need to be installed separately. 5. See the documentation for instructions on how to get started with the nRF5 SDK. The documentation is located at http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.sdk/dita/sdk/nrf5_sdk.html Installing CMSIS Packs ====================== To use CMSIS Packs, you must be using Keil 5.12 or later. Packs are not supported by nRF5 SDK v11.0.0 and later. 1. Ensure that all required software is installed. See the Getting started section in the nRF51 Development Kit User Guide or the nRF52 Series documentation (both available at http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com) for detailed information. 2. Download the packs file nRF5_SDK_x.x.x_xxxxxxx_packs.zip (for example, nRF5_SDK_10.0.0_1a2b3c4_packs.zip). 3. Extract the .zip file to a temporary directory, for example C:\tmp\nRF5_SDK. 4. Run the install.bat file that is located in the extracted directory and follow the instructions. 5. After the installation, access the components and examples from the Keil Pack Installer. 6.
