As in topic - how to ?

Moderator - sorry for opening the new topic, as I remember that such a problem was here some times ago but I can not find it now (or it has been a dream.. :-). If not dream - I hope you are better in searching - could you direct / collect this entry?

Thanks

Robert

Hi,

Maybe this one?
http://forum.raisonance.com/viewtopic.php?id=2295

Note that this thread refers to ST7/STM8, but mt answer applies to all targets supported by RLink. (ARM...)

Note also that since I made this answer, the STM8 and Cortex command-line programming applications have been improved for taking an option for connecting to a specific RLink, in order to reduce the random aspect of which RLink Windows will give you. But for debugging you still need to plug RLink 1, start debug session 1, then plug RLink 2, and start debug session 2.

Finally, please note that there is no guarantee that using multiple RLinks (for prog or for debug) will work on all systems. It depends a lot on the PC, its OS, its USB controller(s), and also on the other USB devices that are plugged. (printer, mouse, ...) Experience showed that on some systems you can program five targets at the same time, but on others it doesn't work with two. This is why this option was only implemented for some command-line tools and not all tools.

Best Regards,

Vincent
