Hi Jason Its really no problem.
I used the steps that you have send me with a ST-link V2 J-TAG (It is almost like the USB wiggler). I can open up a serail connection with Hyperterminal and open up an connection with the OCD Commander. Once i run the Macro I get the following error: Write large: processor running (40:0C) and An error occured during the execution of your Marco file. Exit Marco execution now? and then nothing happens. Thanks for your help!!
