Trying to evaluate a Maxon 323217 Motor with the STEVAL-SPIN3201 and not having any luck.
Using MCSDK6.2 with Motor Control Workbench 6.2.1 and Motor Pilot 1.2.5.
The motor is configured for position control using a 512 count ABI encoder. I've tried sensorless w/ Torque and Speed Control / Hall w/ Speed Control / Encoder Position Control / Encoder without Index Speed Control. None of the configuration's work at all. The system is unstable in almost all configurations. Tried PWM Frequencies 10kHz / 16kHz / 20kHz with the later two with the current loop running at half the PWM rate. Tried using the automatic calculations using Auto Calculate Torque/Flux Kp & Ki and tried custom values based on another system which correctly works for this motor. Set electrical alignment to index pulse = 0 as per the Maxon datasheets. Also tried measuring the BEMF on A-B and setting the offset angle to the index pulse that way (135deg?).
Maxon motor controller works fine with this motor so the motor is functioning. Any suggestions?
FWIW: Tried using MCSDK5.4 and software bugs failed to allow me to build the project since it can't find the newer version of MX.
