nRF Connect SDK Installation

The Conexio devices currently only support ZephyrRTOS. To access all the features and capabilities, Nordic Semiconductor has developed the nRF Connect SDK (NCS) that enables you to develop applications for nRF53, and nRF91 Series devices that powers Conexio devices.

To make nRF Connect SDK installation a breeze, follow the following steps.

• Download and install a cross-platform tool nRF Connect for Desktop for your operating system.

• Install and run the nRF Connect tool on your machine.

• Click Install next to the Toolchain manager as shown below.
