Connecting Keil Debugger to Pro Board

Hello,
I am having a tremendously hard time setting up the software and drivers to be able to use my development board (pro).

I am simply trying to run some of the example code (ie blinky), but Keil cannot locate my board.
Within the 'Options for target" window under the tab 'debug' and in the settings there is no device listed for my dev board. (port is set to SW not Jtag).
However When I switch the SN to that of the dongle it can locate the dongle device and load code / debug on the dongle just fine.

Im wondering if this is a problem with how the drivers are installed. In Device Manager, the Dongle is listed as "Jlink CDC UART port"
and the dev board is only listed as a "USB serial Port".

If that is indeed the problem how can I fix it? Every time I try to update the drivers of the board, Windows will not allow me because "the drivers are already up to date".

any and all help would be appreciated.

Hi jamartin,

The pro kit and the dongle are a bit different, the pro kit has a double FTDI for the power measurements and the uart communication and the dongle uses the Atmel for the UART functionallity, when the pro kit is connected those two ports are the only one that you should see at your device manager. The most common reason for this kind of issue is that the 580 is not powered or is damaged or not properly connected, please try to check with a different daughter board.
