AutoDevKit Integration & Java VM Error – SPC5 Studio / SPC5-MCTK-01

[Laura]

Hi everyone,

I'm working on a university project involving vehicle lateral control using the SPC5-MCTK-01 board. I'm using SPC5 Studio and AutoDevKit, but I'm facing issues with the setup:

• AutoDevKit installation via SPC5 Studio (Help → Install New Software) fails repeatedly.

• Launching AutoDevKit directly results in:
  "Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit."

Tested on both Windows 10 and 11 – same issue.

I'd appreciate help with:

• Correct integration of AutoDevKit into SPC5 Studio

• Fixing the Java VM error

• Tips or resources for using SPC5-MCTK-01 efficiently

Thanks in advance!
Best regards

Hi,

Just to clarify, SPC5-MCTK-01 is not in the AutoDevKit ecosystem therefore you should use pure SPC5Studio.

If you would like to evaluate 3Phase motor control solution in AutoDevKit, I suggest to use AEK-MOT-3P99081

or equivalent AEK-MOT-3P9908M.
