Hi,
[PN]: STEVAL-CTM009V1 with F446RE
[VERSION]: 6.3.2
[TOOL]: MC SDK
[DETAILS]: just can't get the engine to turn
[EXPECTED BEHAVIOR]:the engine turns
[HOW TO REPRODUCE]: see below...
First:
There is a bug in RevUp—see the picture below. When changing the torque current values, the input value is automatically reset to 0.
Second:
I identified the motor parameters using the IHM08M1 board and configured the machine accordingly.
The machine successfully rotated!
Third (CTM009V1 Hardware):
I have concerns regarding the current measurement using the ICS. I suspect that they are either not measuring correctly or that there is an underlying issue.
One aspect that frustrates me is that a data stream is not displayed unless MotorPilot is started.
I would like to send a current through a test-cable to verify whether the ICs are functioning correctly.
But if I don't start the Motor-Pilot I don't see any data stream -.-
Fourth:
Next, I attempted to generate an open-loop current, but unfortunately, I failed miserably.
Without the overcurrent protection, the semiconductors on the board would have been destroyed long ago.
Fifth:
Parallel to this test setup, I assembled the new B-G473E with a custom-built machine featuring 12 armatures and 14 magnets.
Highest respect to the ST development team, this setup works exceptionally well!
It is astonishing how smoothly the machine runs without sensors.
Setting up an open-loop current in this case was effortless.
Sixth:
Finally, I would like to share my opinion. The hardware options in the MCSDK should be streamlined slightly. Instead, more emphasis should be placed on improving the software concept in terms of quality.
The idea and the direction in which it is developing is great! I have been following the whole thing since 2017.
Of course, sometimes more or less with long breaks in between.
cheers
Aaron
