B-G473E-ZEST1S with 3 motors

[Sboivineau]

Hello,

I am currently evaluating the STM32 G4 platform for motor control. I would like to control 3 motors with one MCU, and I was planning to order:

 

1 * B-G473E-ZEST1S

3 * STEVAL-LVLP01

1 * B-ZEST-ADAPT1

3 motors

I have installed x-cube-mcsdk-6.4.2 and tried to create this setup, but I cannot see how to add 3 motors, and how to interface many power boards to 1 control board : 

The file supporting B-ZEST-ADAPT1 needs to be imported ?

The support for 3 instead of 2 motors needs to be done manually (by editing the code) ?

The 3 motors will be using biss or ssi so I will have to create those drivers. Are there any other points to check for compatibility ?

Thanks for your support

Hello ​@Sboivineau,

The B-ZEST-ADAPT1 board is not supported in Motor Control Software Development Kit (MCSDK) 6.4.2. Support is planned for a future version.
Only Dual Drive is supported.
With the B-G473E-ZEST1S board, you can use the PCIe connector for one motor and the Morpho connector for the second.
SSI / BiSS are not supported on MCSDK.
Refer to the Release Note documentation from "Workbench tool">About>Documentations for more details.
