With the Coronavirus shutdown we need to move our teaching labs to remote access. We would like to connect ST-Micro discovery boards to Keil using Windows Remote Desktop - but we can't figure out how to make the ST-Link USB port work remotely. We can see the ST-Micro discovery board as a USB mass storage device - but no virtual serial or USB ports.
Has anyone tried this and gotten it to work?
We have purchased disco boards for the students to take home. The big issue is that so many students use Apple and would need to remote into our Windows machines to run Keil.
But "remote desktop" is just giving a remote view; the Target would have to be physically connected to the machine running Keil.
Remote desktop allows remote USB ports. We can, for example, mount a flash drive on the client and see it on the remote server. We have not been able to get a Discovery board to work that way (or an Arduino). I was hoping someone had got it to work.
If we connect the target to the server, everything works - but it's hard for the students at home to see the blinky lights or push the buttons :(
