4.  While the bootloader is running, send the u-connectXpress NINA-B31X-SW-3.0.0-0.005.bin file 
to NINA-B3. The file is sent using XMODEM protocol. 
 
5.  Once the binary file has been sent, NINA-B3 displays the greeting text +STARTUP. Enter the 
Software version identification AT+GMR command again to make sure that the latest software 
version is now installed. 
2.3.1.2.3  Updating both the SoftDevice and u-connectXpress connectivity software 
The  SoftDevice  is  updated  with  AT  commands  using  dual-banked  approach,  and  as  a  SoftDevice 
update overwrites the  application currently flashed in the  module  it  is also necessary to flash  the 
ConnectivitySoftware application after the SoftDevice update. 
☞  You  can  send  AT  text  commands  to  NINA-B3  to  execute  tasks  using  open-source  terminal 
emulator software that supports XMODEM, like TeraTerm or ExtraPuTTy. Alternatively, you can 
send all AT commands described in this section using the s-center software in AT mode. See also 
the s-center user guide [6]. 
Procedure 
The examples in this procedure have been created and tested on EVK-NINA-B31 using TeraTerm. 
1.  Setup the serial port connection. See also Setting up the serial port. 
2.  Prepare NINA-B3 to accept the SoftDevice binary file for download at the defined baud rate.  
Enter the Update software AT+UFWUPD command together with the SoftDevice values <mode> and 
<baudrate> defined in the NINA-B31X-CF-<version>.json file. Note particularly that <mode>=1.
