Jlink RTT Viewer not detecting Target Device Automatically

[soumil]

Hi,

I installed the latest version of Jlink 6.16f. I connected my nrf52-dk and on opening the RTT viewer, I always need to specify the target device manually instead of it being detected automatically. I am also attaching a screenshot. What could be the reason for this ?

You mean you have to set it every time? I only need to set it up once.

See Chapter 3.7.7 in the JLink User Manual: Command line options for JlinkRTTViewer.

You can use

JLinkRTTViewer --AutoConnect --Device NRF52832_XXAA -if SWD -ct USB

as the command line to auto-connect to an NRF52832 chip.

The JLinkRTTViewer should save its settings somewhere - but that seems not to work for you.

Yes Matt, I have to set it everytime.

Thanks Turbo. This command is easy to use.
