S32DS 2018.R1 doesn't recognize OpenSDA COM port on S32K144 EVB

[davorin_mista]

I'm trying to debug an application on my S32K144EVB using S32DS 2018.R1 Update11, running the example project BCC_S32K144_Monitoring: 

Hardware: S32K144EVB-Q100 + FRDM33771CSPEVB = BATT-14EMU
The EVB is powered on, running the pre-built BMS example from the Freedom Board "MC3377xC EvalGUI"

Device Manager shows COM7 as OpenSDA, yet S32DS Debug Configurations doesn't give me a debug port to choose.I freshly rebooted Windows to make sure I don't have any other application running that may be hogging the COM7 port.

Also using TeraTerm I can connect to COM7, further indicating that the port is not in use already.

Please advise.

Thanks,
Davorin

Fwiw, uninstalling both my S32DS versions as well as the PEMicro drivers - and then only installing 2018.R1 fixed my issue. Maybe I could have also just uninstalled the drivers and installed the one you suggested...

I just noticed these 3 drivers in Device Manager:

Could this be the cause of my issues? 

"PEMicro ..." driver is version 12.3 from 2/18/2016

"pemicrowindrvr" is version 12.4 from 1/4/2017

WinDriver is also version 12.3 from 2/18/2016

Which one(s), if any, shall I remove?

Thanks,
Davorin

It is possible. Current PeMicro OpenSDA Debug Driver is dated January 23rd, 2017 so it is newer than yours. You may download it here:
