I want to evaluate a particular GaN FET found on an EPC9167 inverter board. It has a connector on it that allows it to interface to an ST NUCLEO G432RB board. The firmware "out of the box" is set up to run a particular motor. I need to adjust the sensoless parameters to run a different motor. I don't see any example projects in the Motor Control Workbench 6.4.0 that pair the NUCLEO G432RB board with the EPC9167 inverter board. Anyone ever done this before?

Hello @DKM and welcome to ST community,
You can describe your EPC power board using the "STMC Board Designer" tool available in the MCSDK6.4.0 package. Or you can contact the EPC customer service to provide the EPC9167 board ".json" description file to be used with STMC Workbench tool.

I found out that the original firmware was built using Motor Control Workbench 5.4.8. I have the .stmcx file and can load it. When I try a generate I get an error that STM32CubeMX not found - ver. "5.2.0" or higher is required.
However I have STMCubeMX 6.14.1 installed. Any ideas why it cant find it?

Hello @GMA,
I have the STM32CubeMX software installed. Its the latest version 6.14.1. The problem is that the MotorControl Workbench tool v 5.4.8 does not find it installed.

Hello @DKM
I would advise you to test with STM32CubeMX v6.4.0. which is the recommended version for the MCSDK 5.4.8.

The installer for this version crashes and the installation does not complete.
