Downloading With J-Link Doesn't Work

Hi NXP Team,

I'm testing the an application with #S32K3X8EVB-Q289 using #MBDT

I've changed the option of downloading in solver panel like this:

When i try to download the program it pops up this message:

I've repeatedly checked the connection and all seems good....

If i change the download type as USB Multilink, attaching the usb cable, the download operation works.

I've also tried with an other simple projet changing the download type and works both with J-link and USB-Multilink....

I attach the two projects i've been working on.

How could i solve this problem?

Hello @simon98 ,

Just to clarify both workflows. If you use the project_working.zip, you are able to download the application on the board using both J-Link and Multilink.

But in the case of project_not_working.zip, it only works with Multilink.

I noticed that in the case of the model that doesn't work, that the path to the J-Link ("J-Link Location") is set to "C:\Program Files\SEGGER\JLink_V810i\JFlash.exe". Could you try deploying the application again after selecting the Jlink.exe, effectively transforming the path into "C:\Program Files\SEGGER\JLink_V810i\JLink.exe"?

I also looked at the attached configurations and nothing jumped out to me as incorrectly configured. I especially looked at the UnTouchedPortPin section which is the same as the working project.

Before we dive into more troubleshooting options, could you let me know if it works by selecting JLink.exe instead of JFlash.exe?

Changing the path into "C:\Program Files\SEGGER\JLink_V810i\JLink.exe" works

Thanks,
Simon
