2.2.1. Working with target vehicles

Right-click on a top-level entry, for example ARM-ARM-USB, to see the Target Vehicles context menu.

Target Vehicle context menu options

The options available from this menu enable you to manage the vehicle used to make the connection. What options are available, and how you use these options, depends on the vehicle you are using:

Collapse All

Collapses the hierarchical tree to display only the top-level entries.

Expand Vehicles

Expands the hierarchical tree to display the contents of top-level groups, and any previously expanded second-level groups.

Connection Properties...

Displays the Connection Properties window to amend current configuration details or to add target configurations (see Viewing board file properties for details).

Select Board-File...

Displays the Select Board-File to Read dialog box, where you can specify a new board file for target configuration in this session.

If you change the board file in this way, the new board is then used for all connections available with the chosen vehicle.

Note

To ensure that configuration information is maintained, do not change the active board file if:

  • the Connection Properties window is open

  • you are connected to a debug target.

If there are any connections established, for any vehicle, the menu includes the option:

Disconnect All

Disconnects all connected targets, using the default disconnect mode, and collapses the tree to display the top-level and second-level entries.
