Other devices:

----? CC Debuger

----? Unknown device (USB Dongle?)

---Standard Serial over Bluetooth link (COM7)

The device TI CC2540 NOT! appeared.

Please help fix that problem.

  • Hello Eli,

    You can try reinstalling the drivers from the BLE drivers folder for the USB.  Also, you may want to download the hostTestRelease project to the dongle by compiling it with IAR if the .hex files are not working.

    Thanks,
