USBDM in KDS 2.0

[gschelotto]

Hi all,

I'm not able to see USBDM option in the Debug Configurations in KDS 2.0. I've installed USBDM 4.10.6.250 and USBDM Drivers v1.3.0 that actually run on a FRDM-KL25Z target but cannot start a debug session using USBDM. I also update KDS 2.0 with CDT main and optional features with no success. How can I get the correct plugin?

regards,

gaston

Hi Gaston,

Please check the following:

• There should be a usbdm.link  file in the ....\KDS_2.0.0\eclipse\dropins directory.  If not then the installation failed in some way.
• If the above file is present then KDS should pick up the USBDM plugins on the next start.  This may not occur if the permissions associated with some of the KDS installation are incorrect.  This prevents KDS from changing its own configuration. 
• Check if the plugins as loading:
  • From the menu select Help About Kinetis Design Studio
  • Click on Installation Details
  • Go to the Plug-ins Tab
  • Click on the top of the Plug-in Id column to sort by ID
  • You should see something similar to (numbers will vary from shown but should all be the same):
  •    
• If the plug-ins are not present you can try the following:
  • Go to the eclipse ....\KDS_2.0.0\eclipse directory and change its permissions so that you have write permission for it and its sub-directories. Restart KDS.
  • If this fails - Right-click on KDS icon or kinetis-design-studio.exe and select Run as administrator
  • If this fails - Go to a command line and run kinetis-design-studio.exe -initialise

Hope this helps.

bye

Hi pgo,

Yes, the installation failed for the USBDSM-KDS files. Now it fixed, thank you!
