Setup procedure

Windows®

Install
If an older version of STM32CubeMonitor-RF is already installed, the existing version must be uninstalled before installing the new one. The user must have administrator rights on the computer to run the installation.

  1. Download STM32CMonRFWin.zip.
  2. Unzip this file to a temporary location.
  3. Launch STM32CubeMonitor-RF.exe to be guided through the setup process.

Uninstall
To uninstall STM32CubeMonitor-RF, follow the steps below:

  1. Open the Windows Control panel.
  2. Select Programs and Features to display the list of programs installed on the computer.
  3. Left-click on STM32CubeMonitor-RF from the STMicroelectronics publisher and select the Uninstall function.

Linux®

Software requirements
The Java® runtime environment is required for the Linux® installer. It can be installed with the command apt-get install default-jdk or the package manager.

Install

  1. Download STM32CMonRFLin.tar.gz.
  2. Unzip this file to a temporary location.
  3. Make sure you have access rights to the target installation directory.
  4. Launch the execution of the SetupSTM32CubeMonitor-RF.jar file, or launch manually the installation with java -jar <install path>/SetupSTM32CubeMonitor-RF.jar.
  5. An icon appears on the desktop. If the icon is not executable, edit its properties and select the option Allow executing file as program, or from Ubuntu® 19.10 onward, and choose the option Allow launching.

Information about COM port on Ubuntu®
The modemmanager process checks the COM port when the board is plugged in. Due to this activity, the COM port is busy for a few seconds, and STM32CubeMonitor-RF cannot connect.
The users need to wait for the end of the modemmanager activity before opening the COM port. If the user does not require the modemmanager, it is possible to uninstall it with the command sudo apt-get purge modemmanager.
For the sniffer mode, the modem manager must be uninstalled or disabled through the command sudo systemctl stop ModemManager.service before connecting the sniffer device.
If the modem manager cannot be disabled, it is also possible to define rules so that the modem manager ignores the sniffer device. The 10-stsniffer.rules file, available in the ~/STMicroelectronics/STM32CubeMonitor-RF/sniffer directory can be copied in /etc/udev/rules.d.

Uninstall  

  1. Launch the uninstaller.jar located in the installation directory /STMicroelectronics/STM32CubeMonitor-RF/Uninstaller. If the icon is not executable, edit its properties and select the option Allow executing file as program.
  2. Select Force deletion… and click on the Uninstall button.

macOS® 

Install

  1. Download STM32CMonRFMac.zip.
  2. Unzip this file to a temporary location.
  3. Make sure you have access rights to the target installation directory.
  4. Double-click on the installer STM32CubeMonitor-RF.dmg file.
  5. Open the STM32CubeMonitor-RF new disk.
  6. Drag and drop the STM32CubeMonitor-RF shortcut to the Applications shortcut.
  7. Drag and drop the document folder to a location of your choice.

If an error with STM32CubeMonitor-RF an not be opened because it is from an unidentified developer occurs, the command sudo spctl –master-disable must be used to disable the verification.
