7. Raisonance solutions for ARM upgrades
By default, all Raisonance hardware products are sold with the RKit-ARM-Lite software product
included, unless you ordered the RKit-ARM-Enterprise software product.
You can upgrade your Raisonance tools for ARM in 2 separate ways:
• Upgrades 1a and 1b unlock the 64 Kbyte debug limitation.
• Upgrade 2 provides the advanced software features of the RKit-ARM-Enterprise software.
7.1 Hardware upgrade paths 1a and 1b (RLink-STD to RLink-PRO)
Debug code size limitations are specific to, and controlled by, the licenses of the RLink hardware. The
RLink acts as a license dongle to facilitate portability of the unlimited debugging capability from one
computer to another. For more information about licenses, refer to the RLink User Manual.
• Most Raisonance hardware products for ARM have the capabilities of the RLink-STD and are
subject to a 64 Kbyte debugging code-size limitation for ARM.
• RLink-PRO, STM32 Primer1-PRO, STM32 Primer2-PRO and products for which users have
bought an upgrade license (note 1) are not subject to this limitation.
Upgrades to unlock the debug limitation are available to users of the RLink-STD (including Open4,
Primers and REva). This upgrade has no other effect or impact on the software features of the
respective RKit.
If the hardware has been upgraded, you need to install an upgrade license file that is specific to your
hardware's serial number in a directory on any computer that you will use with the Rlink-PRO.
"PRO" licenses cannot be transferred to another RLink or hardware device. If you require an upgrade
for another hardware product, please contact Raisonance sales or your Raisonance distributor.
