Nordic Semi nRF5340 DK tutorial firmware download outdated

Hello,

I have flashed the nRF5340-dk with the official edge impulse firmware, both using nRF Programmer and just drag&drop. The device answers in the COM3 port when resetting, so the UART seems to work, at least in TeraTerm. However, the edge-impulse-daemon cli doesnt seem to work, while the edge-impulse-data-forwarder seems to work :


C:>edge-impulse-daemon

I have now tested this with 2 PC’s with 2 different cables, installing and reinstalling the cli. I also tested with another nRF5340-dk. It came to mind that is the prebuilt firmware up to date? Have someone else encountered the some problem?

I have not tested to build the firmware myself.

I noticed that the firmware downloaded from the tutorial page says its compiled Oct 6 2023

It seems that its a must to compile the latest firmware from git. This is what comes up from the serial:


Hello from Edge Impulse Device SDK.

This outdated firmware was downloaded from this tutorial, chapter 3 step 2.
