Plug
in the BluePill and load the mbed Serial Port driver.
The mbed
serial port works by default on Mac, Linux.
Also on Windows10 for
CMSIS-DAP >0240, but this is an older CMSIS-DAP version and has
not been tested on Window10. However Windows7/8 needs a driver.
However the BluePill with the CMSIS-DAP software is not recognized as an mbed device so the standard Windows 7 install program, mbedWinSerial_16466.exe, fails.
Download mbedDrivers.zip and unzip its drivers directory to a convenient location (e.g. Desktop). These drivers are a zip of the those installed by mbedWinSerial_16466.exe from https://os.mbed.com/docs/mbed-os/v6.15/program-setup/windows-serial-driver.html while a MicroBit was plugged in.
Plug in the BluePill which has had the CMSIS-DAP code installed on it (via ST-Link V2)
