Need tuning guide for new custom motor with EVSPIN32G4

[Sanchari]

I am trying to spin a new motor with motor pilot using EVSPIN32G4. I am not able to run it. Hitting startup failure.

Is there any quick and easy tuning guide available to tune a new motor and run smoothly?

Hello @Sanchari,

You can use the Motor Profiler tool embedded in MCSDK Workbench 6.4.1 to profile your motor.
Refer to the Workbench tool > About > Documentations > Documentation > User Manual, and the Motor Profiler Application Note link.

Refer to FOC Firmware errors link for error description and management.

Thanks for the Motor profiler description.

But if i want to set any features or get details about what all features are supported by the control code, from where to get that details?

Hello @Sanchari,

The User Manual describes the motor control features and is available in the previously mentioned documentation.

Hello,

I have gone through MC workbench details. Bit i am not sure how to use the IDE?

Can i change any variable in IDE ? whether that will affect the motor performance?

[Sanchari]

I have gone through "Motor Profiler" note. But I see some differences with MC workbench SW .

Attaching the screenshot of MC workbench and Application note description.

Application note details

The marking part of workbench SW is not matching with the documentation. 

Can you please suggest what do i need to do here?

Hello @Sanchari,

Current sensing topologies depend on the board hardware configuration. Refer to the Board description - current sensing page for more details.

Is there any documentation for the fault details and how to remove them?

[Sanchari]

For Single shunt operation, I have removed R31, R32, R35, R36 from the EVSPIN32G4 EVM and Shorted JP1 and JP2 on the board. But I am not able to run motor as I am getting driver protection fault.

I see different OPAMP configurations details in the user guide but not able to find out how to select those in the workbench.

Please guide me do I need to change any more hardware connection or any software change is required?

Hello @Sanchari,

Error description and management are detailed in the FOC firmware errors chapter of the user manual, accessible through Workbench tool > About > Documentations > Documentation.
MC Workbench displays all available current topologies for a specific hardware.
