I am debugging FRDM-KL05Z with USBDM, but I received a 'Failed to resume target process., Downloading binary to target..' error message. What do I do?

To solve this problem, use the standalone flash programmers with ARM based devices that comes with USBDM.

Figure 1. USBDM 4.10.4 Installed Program Shortcuts

The Flash Programmer has a Detect functionality, in this case it is not able to detect the KL05Z32 on the FRDM-KL05Z board:

Figure 2. Flash Programmer for ARM

Flash Programmer for ARM also reports the chip ID. The ID mapping is described in the arm_devices.xml file inside the USBDM installation folder:

Figure 3. arm_devices.xml Configuration

The arm_devices.xml file has the KL05Z32 listed as:

Figure 4. arm_devices.xml

As the code in the above figure shows that the device ID (0x05130480) does not match what the programmer reported (0x5130402). Testing the ID with the working FRDM-KL25Z, it shows that the last nibble is zero, so you have the change the above entry, as the following figure shows:

Figure 5. Changed arm_devices.xml

With this your device detects properly, as the following figure shows:

Now you can successfully debug the FRDM-KL05Z with USBDM using CodeWarrior for MCU10.x.
