How to post
Dear User,
to keep the forum on topic we kindly ask you to comply with the following rules for postings:
- Please use the search function
Please check the forum first for matches to your subject. Before you start a new thread make sure it has not been answered already.
- Find the right forum
If your search was not successful, maybe there is a more appropriate forum to discuss your topic.
- Pick self-explaining subjects
Don't use subjects like "need Help" or "How does this work?". This wording is useless and nobody will know immediately, what your question is about.
Please select a self-explaining subject. To catch the attention of the experts.
- Information
If you have a problem, please insert information and description as much as possible. For instance, you should mention where a problem occurs, what's the settings and environment parameters, which tools you are using, what kind of hardware is involved, etc.
- Please, no Cross-Postings
Please don't repeat a similar posting, which is already active.
- Please be a little patient (give us some time)
Note that you won't get an immediate answer in all cases. While this forum has a high priority for the SEGGER staff, sometimes it might just take a little while until we can reproduce your issue or answer your questions.
- Inactive threads will be closed
Threads with more than one month inactivity will be closed.
Thanks for your understanding.
Your SEGGER forum team
