If you **//do use my repo//**, the do **not** forget that you will still need to download the [[https://www.thisisant.com/developer/components/nrf52832#tab_protocol_stacks_tab|S340 softdevice from thisisant.com]] and install it into the proper place, as redistribution of the said SoftDevice by individuals is not permited. You //must// sign the ANT license and respect its conditions.

+ | ===== Caveats ===== | ||
+ | * Please note, that the above changes just mean that you have replaced the bootloader and the softdevice with an ANT+ capable one. //Developing ANT+ application needs additional software, which you need to develop yourself, or obtain and adapt from thisisant.org, for example// | ||
+ | * All the regular Arduino sketches and all the Bluefruit52 SW is supposed to run as-is with the modified bootloader | ||
+ | * **NOTE** that CircuitPython compatibility will be lost with this modification. The CircuitPython interpreter is distributed as UF2 binary firmware-update and that is bundled with the S140 BLE softdevice. Trying to "update" an S340 equipped nRF52804 Feather with the CircuitPython interpreter formware will most likely "brick" your Feather and you will need a Segger J-Link firmware-updater to "unbrick" your Feather | ||
