Documentation of ASPEP Protocol?

[TThan]

As stated in UM1052, chapter 14 there is often a requirement to control a BLDC motor control board over a serial connection. The above manual describes the protocol used by older MCSDKs. But the latest MCSDK 5.Y.x seems to use a slightly different procol called ASPEP.

Unfortunately I could not find a documentation for that protocol on the ST web site.

My question is: Is there any documentation of that new protocol or is it required to reverse engineer the STM source code to use it with an different application than the Motor Pilot?

Thank you for any hints!

Best Regards

Hello everyone, the MCP & ASPEP documentation is provided in the package. The fastest way to find it is through the Motor Control Workbench:

- Open Mc Workbench
- Click top right on "About" button
- Click on "Documentation" -> "Documentation 
- Click on "User Manual"
- And finally click on Motor Control Protocol Suite

As it is HTML documentation you can also enter this link in your browser: (replace _your_install_folder_)

file:///C:/_your_install_folder_/MC_SDK_6.1.1/Documentation/html/motor-control-protocol-suite.html
