CLUE nRF52840 Express with CircuitPython 9.0.3

Code/REPL

import time
import board
from rainbowio import colorwheel
import neopixel

pixels = neopixel.NeoPixel(board.NEOPIXEL, 10, brightness=0.2, auto_write=False)
rainbow_cycle_demo = 1


def rainbow_cycle(wait):
    for j in range(255):
        for i in range(10):
            rc_index = (i * 256 // 10) + j * 5
            pixels[i] = colorwheel(rc_index & 255)
        pixels.show()
        time.sleep(wait)


while True:
    if rainbow_cycle_demo:
        rainbow_cycle(0.05)

Behavior

The CLUE board does not appear in the list of available Bluetooth devices on the testing device, making it impossible to initiate a pairing process.

The expected behavior of the LED indicating discoverability or pairing mode (solid blue) is not observed; instead, the LED flashes blue, suggesting the board is in a different state or the Bluetooth functionality is not initiating correctly.

Description

Operating System: macOS Sonoma 14.4.1
Board: Adafruit CLUE nRF52840 Express
CircuitPython Version: 9.0.3
Bluetooth Device for Testing: iPhone, Mac

Additional information

The file transfer process was completed, but it didn't show that bytes were transferred.
Despite the transfer indication, the boot_out.txt file confirms that the board has been updated to CircuitPython 9.0.3.
