RTT Logger not finding my JLink

  • Hi everyone,

    I'm encountering an issue with my J-Link Base when trying to use it with RTT Logger from software pack 8 (tried 8.24 and 8.38)
    It looks like the probe is not detected


    RTT Viewer from the same software packs works fine.

    If I use the same RTT Logger command with an older software pack version (like 7.94i) the probe is correctly detected and everything works as expected

  • Hello,

    We are not aware of such an issue.

    To help us investigate further, could you please provide a J-Link log file from the failing scenario?

  • Hello,

    I am able to reproduce the issue.

    We will fix this issue in one of the upcomming releases.

    For now a workaround for this issue would be to manually specify the SN or nickname of your J-Link. See -USB command line option:
