Hi there,
Here introduce the firmware perspective about how to program your code onto MDBT50Q-RX dongle.
Believed all readers have done the hardware setting and now has well prepared to load the code onto the dongle. (If not yet done the hardware setting, pls find it here)
In this blog, we will introduce the procedure based on below 2 scenarios
With over 1,000 exhibitors gathering in Nuremberg, Germany on 25 Feb.~27 Feb., 2020 , Embedded World already is one of the biggest trade fair among the IoT Technologies.
Raytac is pleased to be in attendance and present our full range of module family based on Nordic nRF52840, nRF528333 and all others.
We welcome all developers come to meet us and look forward to seeing you there.

Raytac AT command is built based on Nordic UART service, aka NUS, which is similar to SPP (Serial Port Profile) applied in Classic Bluetooth (BT2 and BT3)
To service the Bluetooth bridging works, AT command modules or dongle comes with both Central/Master & Peripheral/ Slave role available.
Latest released MDBT50Q-RX-ATM is a USB dongle designated to connect to PC or Machine acted as the Central / Mater role supporting below commands.
List of supported commands

Raytac today announced (Central / Master) AT command dongle released.
Part No.:
nRF52840 is Nordic’s latest and advanced solution, which brings a new interface “USB” from other lines, has drawn the attention among developers.
Raytac developed AT Command (Master / Central ) solution based on nRF52840 solution, fulfilled the demand of USB interface, missioned to deliver a full coverage of AT Command product line.
Raytac’s nRF52840 USB AT Command dongle, MDBT50Q-RX-ATM is a BT5, FCC/IC/CE/Telec/KC/SRRC/NCC/RCM/WPC pre-certified dongle which is eliminating the need for RF design expertise, and speeding time to market for complex M2M IoT applications.
AT command module is an easy solution provides developers a quick breakthrough to Bluetooth connection. Without firmware effort needed, simply have commands setting on MCU and the start to enjoy the implement of bridging connectivity between devices through Bluetooth.
After Raytac’s completed both Central (Master) & Peripheral (Salve) role AT command module projects, the USB interface has brought up the strongest demand by developers.

Now we know what to look for and where they are, so now we have only got to tell you how to use them.
Some people might not know this, but for developing these things, you need to get something called J-Link to connect your MDBT50Q-RX to your desktop. However, since this J-Link, when buying the official one from SEGGER, is very expensive, we strongly recommend you to just buy the nRF52840-DK from Nordic Semiconductor as it can be used as a J-Link through their software development kit (SDK) called nRFgo Studio and is MUCH CHEAPER than the official J-Link from SEGGER is.
Sidenote: There are a couple of other reasons why you should just get your hands on a nRF52840-DK from Nordic Semiconductor instead of getting a SEGGER J-Link, but that’s not the topic of this post 😉
When this is done, this is finally how you connect your MDBT50Q-RX to your J-Link to make it all work:
Here you will have to pay attention to the fact that you have to connect J-Link pins 3, 5 & 9 to GND. Otherwise, you won’t be able to burn anything onto your dear MDBT50Q-RX.
The physical connection should look like this:
Pay attention to the direction of the cable, because that will also matter. The direction we mean in this case is which way the slim strip of red is facing.
As we have just revised our MDBT50Q-RX, our customers who have been developing firmware for our USB dongle should take a look at our previous blog post in which we explain about the changes made or contact us directly at service@raytac.com
Have a good day and we at Raytac wish you smooth and happy tinkering 🙂
