To all users of the dSpin Evaluation SW,

There is a bug in the software.

If you use a daisy-chain configuration, the 'Move' Button in the  'Positioning' tab always acts on device 0, regardless which device is selected!

@ Mr. Poli: Is there anything new about the non-functionality of the dSpin Evaluation Tool extension functions (i.e. ConfirmPopup function)?

Best Regards

Klaus

Dear Mr. Perucchi,

have you been able to figure out how communication to the EVAL6470 board via IBUUI (PCC009V2) has to be established?

I have exactly the same problem. The help file of the USB to serial SDK does not really help. It is too undetailed.

Thanks in advance for your response.

Dear Mr. Steinbach,

I apologize for the waiting. I had some problems with my account.

First of all, thanks for your feedback on the evaluation software.

The development of the new revision of the evaluation software is almost completed. After the internal debug and validation phase we will made it available on the web.

The Python extentions will be fixed too.

Please, let us known any further suggestion for the software improvement

Best Regards

Enrico Poli

Dear Mr. Poli,

Thanks for the info about the new revision that will be available soon. That's good news.

Here is a new hardware issue that may be interesting for all users.

As I already noted in one of my posts, I use a daisy chain configuration with 4 devices. While using the same settings, all of them run with a different velocity!

So I measured the OSCOUT Signal and found that the internal oszillator of all 4 devices is out of specification (16MHz +/- 3%). The highest deviation was +12%!

It seems that I have to use an external Oszillator at additional cost. +/- 3% deviation would be tolerable in my application, but not 12%.

Is that 'standard' for this IC? Is STmicro working on an improvement?

Best Regards

Klaus

Dear Mr. Steinbach,

Could you please send me the marking of the device?

Thanks

Best Regards

Dear All

I am working now with the EVAL6470 board a few days. It works very nice, but not with the STEVAL-PCC009V2. I used another USB to SPI converter board (Diolan U2C) to interact with the evalboard. This is sufficient for me to develop our application.

If you haven't already a solution with the STEVAL-PCC009V2, this could probably help you.

Kind regards

F. Perucchi
