Motor Pilot HSO Hardware Config Write Error

[rms_st]

Hello,

I am having an issue writing the Hardware Config in the HSO Motor Pilot. I was able to do this with my previous set up, but recently upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11. Along with the OS upgrade, I also installed the latest releases for all the ST software so MC Workbench went from V6.3.2 to 6.4.1. I am wondering if this is a Win 11 issue or a MC Workbench issue, or possibly a debugger setting issue?

Components Used:

MC Workbench V6.4.1

STM32CubeMX V6.15.0

STM32CubeIDE V1.19.0

B-G473E-ZEST1S Control Board

STEVAL-LVLP01 Power Board

Process:

Generate project in MCWB (Sensorless HSO option) - if errors finish generating in CubeMX - Open in CubeIDE - Build / Flash with default debugger settings via USB to onboard USB STLINK - Connect to MotorPilot (Connects fine, can tune, edit values) - Select Hardware Config (either Read / Fill from UI / Import, all with same result) - Click "Write" then the board doesn't reconnect.

The errors I get in the connection bar either say "Port Open and try to configure the board" or "Port Open but no answer from board".

I have attached the log from one such session to this post. 

I have not yet tried reverting to a previous version of any software yet. Would prefer to avoid that. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hello rms_st,

This is a known issue that will be fixed in the MCSDK's next release. In the meantime, you can change the following lines in sync_registers.c (inside):

#if defined (FLASH_OPTR_DBANK)
  flashEraseInit.Page = ((uint32_t)&flashParams-FLASH_BASE) /(FLASH_PAGE_SIZE_128_BITS);
#else
  flashEraseInit.Page = ((uint32_t)&flashParams-FLASH_BASE) /(FLASH_PAGE_SIZE);
#endif 

into :

#if defined (FLASH_OPTR_DBANK)
  if (READ_BIT(FLASH->OPTR, FLASH_OPTR_DBANK) != 0U)
  {
    flashEraseInit.Page = ((uint32_t)&flashParams-FLASH_BASE) /(FLASH_PAGE_SIZE);
  }
  else
  {
    flashEraseInit.Page = ((uint32_t)&flashParams-FLASH_BASE) /(FLASH_PAGE_SIZE_128_BITS);
  }
#else
  flashEraseInit.Page = ((uint32_t)&flashParams-FLASH_BASE) /(FLASH_PAGE_SIZE);
#endif

Another solution would be to revert to MCSDK 6.3.2.
We apologise for the inconvenience.
