Hi Ronny,

Thanks for your post.
First, please let me correct this:

I tried to connect my jlink to my stm32f7 discovery board , but I got the message the the detected cortex m7 is not supported by the jlink software

Not the software does not support M7, your J-Link does not. Your J-Link model is too old.
This is also what the message says.

I recommend to make use of the trade-in program to get a current model:

Hello,

I bought in 2013 a J-Link Plus Vers. 4.82

By downloading the latest JLink software, I managed to update my J-Link to Vers. 5.02k
Does it now support a STM32F7 Controller?


I am wondering because you recommended to buy a new J-Link

Hi,

I bought in 2013 a J-Link Plus Vers. 4.82

4.82 is the software version you installed on your PC.

According to the S/N your provided with your registration, you bought a J-Link Vers. 9.2,
but Ronny owns a J-Link Vers. 8.0 .

Cortex-M7 is supported by
J-Link Base / Plus V9 and higher
J-Link Ultra+ / Pro V4 and higher

Thus, your J-Link does support Coretex-M7, but Ronnys does not, so we suggested he may trade in his J-Link, in order to upgrade with a 50% discount.


Best regards,
