+# nRF Connect Power Profiler
+
+nRF Connect Power Profiler is an app available from [nRF Connect for Desktop](https://nordic-dev.zoominsoftware.io/bundle/nrf-connect-desktop/page/index.html) that you can use to communicate with the Power Profiler Kit II (PPK2) in order to obtain real-time current measurements of your designs.
+
+The PPK measures current consumption for a connected Nordic Development Kit or any external board. It gives a detailed picture of the current profile for the user application.

+# Troubleshooting
+
+Here are some basic troubleshooting steps to help you fix issues you may encounter when using the Power Profiler Kit II (PPK2).
+
+For more information, visit [Nordic DevZone](https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/).
+
+For personalized support from our technical support team, sign up for or sign in to Nordic Developer Zone and enter a private ticket.
+
+## Data loss with PPK2
+
+In some rare cases data loss can happen between the PPK2 firmware and the Power
+Profiler app. If this happens, first please check your data by zooming in on the
+chart and look for gaps. An occasional gap that lasts a few microseconds
+probably does not effect the accuracy of the data. However if significant data
+loss is visible please check the following points:
+
+-   avoid using USB hubs
+-   if you can, try changing your USB connection from USB3 to USB2, or other way
+    around
+-   update your USB drivers
+-   change the USB cable
+
+
+## PPK2 only measuring noise
+
+Make sure you have connected the PPK2 to the Device Under Test (DUT) as described in [Setting up the Power Profiler Kit II](https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ug_ppk2/page/UG/ppk/setting_up.html).
+
+## Measurements fluctuate when there should be a steady current draw
+
+Your DUT may have a power consumption that is close to a switching point causing rapid switching between the ranges and creating measurement errors/distorted plots.
+
+## Graph response is very slow
+
+Avoid using Universal Serial Bus (USB) hubs and docking stations. Data plotting may consume a lot of CPU resources after some time, so ensure that sufficient resources are available.
+
+## PPK2 not measuring anything
+
+Confirm that the measurement cables are connected correctly because the PPK2 cannot measure negative currents.
+
+## Grounding
+
+Ensure that the DUT ground is connected to the PPK2 even in ampere meter mode.

+# Using the Power Profiler app
+
+The Power Profiler Kit II (PPK2) must be connected to your computer and powered on before the Power Profiler app is started.
+
+1. [Set up the Power Profiler Kit II for measurements](https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ug_ppk2/page/UG/ppk/setting_up.html).
+1. Open the Power Profiler app using [nRF Connect](https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/nrf-connect-desktop/page/installing_apps.html).
+
+    ![Default window of the Power Profiler app](./screenshots/ppk2_standard_view.png "Default window of the Power Profiler app")
+
+1. Click **Select Device** (in the top left corner) and select the PPK2 from the list.
+
+1. Do one of the following:
+
+    - If the PPK2 is set up to measure in Ampere Meter mode (see [Measuring current in Ampere Meter mode](https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ug_ppk2/page/UG/ppk/measure_current_ampere_meter.html)), select **Ampere meter**.
+
+        !!! note "Note"
+            The power output is enabled by default in the Ampere Meter mode.
+
+    - If the PPK2 is set up to measure in Source Meter mode (see [Measuring current in Source Meter mode](https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ug_ppk2/page/UG/ppk/measure_current_source_meter.html)), select **Source meter**.
+
+        !!! note "Note"
+            You can change the voltage output to the Device Under Test (DUT, a manufactured product undergoing testing) by using the slider or typing the required voltage.
+
+1. Click **Start**.
+1. Toggle **Enable power output** to enable power to the DUT.
+
+You can start measuring current when the connection is established.
+
+The Power Profiler app checks if the PPK2 has the required firmware and shows a firmware upgrade dialog if needed.
