  • To reduce network traffic, download device-specific documents from the web and place them into a folder of the form Device Specific Default Root + BOOKn path.

    Default Root is: C:\Keil\ARM\Documents\
    Device Database entry is: BOOK0=DataSheets\ARM_DEVICES\CM0_User_Manual.pdf("Cortex-M0 User Manual")

    Then, the document must be palced into the folder
