STM32F4 TIM1 PWM missing ch1..3

STM32F4 TIMER 1 PWM1. Please can someone tell me how to enable channels 1, 2 and 3. Channel 4 is fine generating a PWM at 0..100% at 20Hz. I know channels 1..3 hardware is different - just can't figure out what to do to get the outputs enabled.

Thanks.

uint16_t CCR3_Val = 50;
uint16_t CCR4_Val = 60;

Use TIM_OCStructInit() to clear out the other four settings to meaningful values, not stack junk.

  TIM_OCInitStruct->TIM_OutputNState = TIM_OutputNState_Disable;

  TIM_OCInitStruct->TIM_OCNPolarity = TIM_OCPolarity_High;

  TIM_OCInitStruct->TIM_OCIdleState = TIM_OCIdleState_Reset;

  TIM_OCInitStruct->TIM_OCNIdleState = TIM_OCNIdleState_Reset;

Other than that the code looks like it should work.

Thanks, I'll try that tomorrow and report back.

That fixed it! Thanks. Added structure initialisation ...

TIM_OCStructInit(&TIM_OCInitStructure); //added THIS
/* PWM1 Mode configuration: Channel1 */
