Neo Trinkey button not activating bootloader

Post by stephencross »

I purchased three Trinkeys. One of them does not go into bootloader mode. When clicking the button, I get four red LEDs.

Hi Stephen,

It sounds like one of the Neo Trinkeys did not get a bootloader installed. The easiest option is usually for us to replace, but if you really wanted to you can use another SAMD controller to upload a fresh bootloader.

Please send an e-mail to [email protected] requesting a replacement Neo Trinkey if the recovery process stated in the above link is of no interest to you. You will need to provide your order number and a link to this forum thread for replacement.
