Connect the hardware¶

Connect Grove-Button to Port#1 on the Base Dock, and then insert the battery.

Build and Run the Example¶

The following steps show how to build and run the grove-button example:

Navigate to the example directory:

# For nRF52832-MDK board
$ cd ./base-dock/examples/grove-button/nrf52832_mdk/armgcc

# For nRF52840-MDK board
$ cd ./base-dock/examples/grove-button/nrf52840_mdk/armgcc

Connect nRF52832-MDK or nRF52840-MDK to your PC.
Build the example and flash to the board.
```
$ make flash_all
```
Start a terminal application like PuTTY or screen and establish a UART connection.
