Project Tool Support

Project tool support for the project device is signified by the colored circles (lights) in front of the tool name.

Light Color Support
Green Full (Implemented and fully tested)
Yellow Beta (Implemented but not fully tested)
Red None

If you cannot see the colors, mouse over a light to pop up text about support.

For hardware tools that can be used as either a debugger or a programmer, there are two lights next to the tool name, where the first (left-most) light signifies Debugger Support and the second light signifies Programmer Support.

Also for hardware tools, you will notice that a serial number (SN) is specified below any tool that is connected to your computer. This allows you to select from several connected hardware tools.

If you are using a third-party hardware tool, ensure you have properly installed that tool if you do not see it listed here. For more information, see Work with Third-Party Hardware Tools.
