Is it possible to program and debug the SensorTile.Box from the USB port?

I have just bought the SensorTile.Box and, as the person posting this question 2 years ago ( https://community.st.com/s/question/0D50X0000BMFuNjSQL/jtag20-to-stdc14-adapter-from-st-for-sensortilebox ), I expected an adapter included in the kit, as I have a J-Link Edu with the typical 20x2.54 connector. I am wondering if this board can work as the Nucleo boards do, being able to be programmed and debugged via USB. Thanks in advance

    Hi @Manuel Gómez Galán​ ,

    it is possible to debug the SensorTile.box via USB using the "printf" function that outputs values via VCOM on a terminal interface.

    However, I suggest you to use the STLINK-V2, with the proper adapter described in the STSW-MKSBOX1_BL databrief.

    If you don't have it because it was not present in the package \bought by the distributors (but it should, indeed), please send me a private message with your shipment address and we'll ship an adapter and a cable to your attention.

    Hello Eleon,

    Many thanks for your reply, I have just sent you a DM. Our purchase was to RS at the beginning of August (a couple weeks ago), in case you want to further investigate the stock of older units.
