SWIM interface
The USB connector CN21 is usable to power STM32L4R9I-EVAL regardless of the
ST-LINK/V2-1 facility use for debugging or for flashing STM32L4R9AII6. This holds also
when ST-LINK/V2 stand-alone tool is connected to CN12 or CN17 or CN11 or CN15
connector and used for debugging or flashing STM32L4R9AII6.
detail on powering STM32L4R9I-EVAL.
For full detail on both versions of the debug and flashing tool, the stand-alone ST-LINK/V2
and the embedded ST-LINK/V2-1, refer to www.st.com.

Drivers
Before connecting STM32L4R9I-EVAL to a Windows (XP, 7, 8 10) PC via USB, a driver for
ST-LINK/V2-1 must be installed. It is available from www.st.com.
In case the STM32L4R9I-EVAL board is connected to the PC before installing the driver, the
Windows device manager may report some USB devices found on STM32L4R9I-EVAL as
"Unknown". To recover from this situation, after installing the dedicated driver downloaded
from www.st.com, the association of "Unknown" USB devices found on STM32L4R9I-EVAL
to this dedicated driver must be updated in the device manager manually. It is recommended
to proceed using USB Composite Device line, as shown in
9.3.2
ST-LINK/V2-1 firmware upgrade
For its own operation, ST-LINK/V2-1 employs a dedicated MCU with Flash memory. Its
firmware determines ST-LINK/V2-1 functionality and performance. The firmware may evolve
during the life span of STM32L4R9I-EVAL to include new functionality, fix bugs or support
new target microcontroller families. It is therefore recommended to keep ST-LINK/V2-1
firmware up to date. The latest version is available from www.st.com.

ETM trace
The connector CN12 is available to output trace signals used for debug. By default, the
evaluation board is configured such that, STM32L4R9AII6 signals PE2, PE5 and PE6 are
not connected to trace outputs Trace_CK, Trace_D2, and Trace_D3 of CN12. They are
used for other functions.
