Hi,
I'm having trouble getting my ST-Link V2 dongle to be recognized by Cube Programmer. It is recognized by Windows 10 in the device manager, I have been able to update the firmware, and I can get it to load in STM32 ST-Link Utility, but that program doesn't support the .elf file format I need.
When I launch Cube Programmer, it does recognize something as shown by the voltage and the firmware (image attached), but when I click the refresh button next to the serial number it says "No ST-Link detected."
I've read from others that there are a lot knockoffs of these dongles floating around that don't work anymore. That might be the problem with mine (this is the second one I've bought and tried). Can anyone point me to a good source to buy a legit one?
In the products page, I've only seen the bigger ST-Link V2 unit and the smaller USB-C V3 unit, but not the V2 Dongle.
I'm trying to flash a board for an Atari 2600 homebrew game I made and I attached a diagram of what the instructions show for the board which specifically shows the ST-Link V2 (STM8 & STM32) . Does anyone know of a fix for this device or another device I could buy that could accomplish this same goal?
I am brand new to all of this and any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you so much.
