An overview picture of software tools, adapter and targets

All Nu-Link2-Pro firmware binary files can be found here
User can re-program Nu-Link2-Pro to another .bin file by the following instructions (Windows OS)

1. Press the button on Nu-Link2-Pro and plug in USB cable.
2. A "Nu-Link2-Pro" disk will show. (If you see disk name is "NuMicro MCU", it will upgrade target device firmware instead of Nu-Link2-Pro itself)
3. Drag and drop Nu-Link2-Pro firmware .bin file into the disk.
4. Re-plug the USB cable and it's done.

More options for NuLink2FW (configuration file NU_CFG.TXT)

1. When you upgrade the NuLink2FW.bin greater than or equal to version v3.05.7174r, open NU_CFG.TXT file in pop-up "NuMicro MCU" disk, you will see some options in NU_CFG.TXT.
   
2. For example, you can see BRIDGE_MODE and CMSIS-DAP options.

• Set BRIDGE_MODE=1 then re-plug in USB cable, the pass-through bridge function of Nu-Link2-Pro will be enabled (The word Nu-Link2-Bridge will be used to represent the pass-through bridge application on Nu-Link2-Pro adapter). Nu-Link2-Bridge pass-through the data between VCOM port and I2C/SPI/RS485/CAN interfaces.
  (You will see an "Nu-Link2-Bridge Virtual Com Port" in device manager.)
  
• Set BRIDGE_MODE=0 then re-plug in USB cable, an USB HID interface supports ISP Tool will be enabled. This USB HID interface doesn't pass through data, it communicates with ISPTool via HID_ISP, and offers I2C/SPI/RS485/CAN interfaces for ISPTool.
  (You will see an USB HID interface [HID_ISP][VID:0x0416, PID:0x520*, interface:05] in device manager.)
• Set CMSIS-DAP=1 then re-plug in USB cable, it presents one more interface HID_CMSIS-DAP, this is handy if you want to use CMSIS-DAP protocol. (You will see an USB HID interface [HID_CMSIS-DAP][VID:0x0416, PID:0x520*, interface:06] in device manager.)
