$ make BOARD=explorerkit_xg24_brd2703a
|
||||
make BOARD=explorerkit_xg24_brd2703a
|
||||
|
||||
You may also build with certain flags available in the makefile, depending on your board and development goals:
|
||||
|
||||
$ make BOARD=explorerkit_xg24_brd2703a DEBUG=1
|
||||
make BOARD=explorerkit_xg24_brd2703a DEBUG=1

After flashing the firmware to the board, at your first connecting to the board, you might see a blank screen. Press enter and you should be presented with a Circuitpython prompt, >>>. If not, try to reset the board (see instructions below).

With the boards which support USB mass storage, we can drag the files to the board file system. However, because the EFR32 boards don’t support USB mass storage, we need to use a tool like **Ampy** to copy the file to the board. You can use the latest version of **Ampy** and its command to copy the module directories to the board.
