    D2: Off 3. Flash programming When the JN5179 USB dongle is powered up, it attempts to run an application from the internal Flash memory of the JN5179 device. This may be a self-contained application that sends and receives wireless data, and which does not need to communicate with the host.
  • Page 8: Compliance Statements And Documentation

    In order to program an application binary into Flash memory, the JN51xx Production Flash Programmer can be used, which is described in the JN51xx Production Flash Programmer User Guide (JN-UG-3099). This programming utility will place the JN5179 into its programming mode. It will then download the program to the Flash memory and reset the JN5179 device, causing the application to be executed.
