Connect CC debugger to the CC2531 USB sniffer. 4. Connect **BOTH** the CC2531 USB sniffer and the CC debugger to your PC using USB. * If the light on the CC debugger is RED press set reset button on the CC debugger. The light on the CC debugger should now turn GREEN. If not use [CC debugger user guide](http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/swru197h/swru197h.pdf) to troubleshoot your problem. 6. Start SmartRF Flash Programmer, with the properties below: * Flash image: Locate the binary at \Projects\zstack\ZNP\CC253x\dev\ (Make sure to select the .hex file and not the .bin file). * Uncheck "Retain IEEE address when reprogramming the chip". 7. Press "Perform Action" to start flashing. ### Linux or MacOS 1.
