On-Board Debugger
9.2 Debug Modes
Programming external devices is done by connecting to a target board through the provided Debug IN/OUT Connector, and by setting
the debug mode to [Out]. The same connector can also be used to connect an external debugger to the EFR32 Wireless SoC on the
kit, by setting the debug mode to [In]. A summary of the different supported debug modes is given in 9.2 Debug Modes.
Selecting the active debug mode is done with a drop-down menu in the Kit Manager tool in Simplicity Studio.
