Set up your DSTREAM-XT system

3. Power up the DSTREAM-XT system.

When you power up the DSTREAM-ST unit and XT probe, both units follow a boot sequence.

The LEDs identify the progress of the boot sequence. For more information, see

DSTREAM-XT

system boot sequence

• Arm recommends that both the DSTREAM-ST unit and XT probe are

powered-up simultaneously. Powering simultaneously ensures that the

DSTREAM-ST unit correctly detects the XT probe during its boot sequence.

• If you need to reset the DSTREAM-XT system, press the reset button on

the rear of the DSTREAM-ST unit. When a DSTREAM-ST unit is connected

in a DSTREAM-XT system, the reset button on the DSTREAM-ST unit re-

initializes both the DSTREAM-ST unit and the XT probe.

4. If you are connecting across an Ethernet network, conﬁgure the Ethernet and internet protocol

settings for your DSTREAM-ST unit. To conﬁgure these settings, use the

Debug Hardware

Conﬁgure IP view

in Arm Development Studio.

You can also use the

Debug Hardware Conﬁgure IP

view to assign a name for the DSTREAM-

ST unit.

5. Connect the DSTREAM-XT system to the target hardware. Use the appropriate cables and

adapters for the target debug and trace connector (or connectors). Some targets have debug

and trace on a single connector, and some targets split them between two connectors. Each

connector, and the appropriate cable to use for that connector, is described in

Target interface

connectors

in the Arm DSTREAM-XT System and Interface Design Reference Guide.

• When connecting the DSTREAM-XT system to target hardware, to avoid

damaging the target or debug hardware, ensure that the debug and

trace connector (or connectors) on the target use pinouts supported by

DSTREAM-XT. For supported pinout information, see the

Arm DSTREAM-

XT System and Interface Design Reference Guide

• If your target performs debug and trace using a single PCIe connector,

connect the XT probe to the target using the 98-way ribbon cable and the

appropriate DSTREAM-XT adapter:
