Trouble Following Motor Profiler FW Generation Guide - B-G431B-ESC1 Discovery Kit

Rescuedan
Visitor

Greetings,

I am very new to ST MCU development, but not new to embedded development. I've developed professionally on Microchip, Qorvo,,and Renesys for the last 20 years. 

 

I am working on bringing up the kit in title. I was successful in generating compiled code for the ElectronicSpeedControl_ESC-G4 project in ST Motor Workbench 6.4. I am working with the latest tools from your website. I did use the stand alone Motor Profiler tool (v5.4) to run a profile on a drone motor successfully, but I quickly realized that it generated XML files for profiles. I figured out that the new version of MP was embedded in WB and produced JSON files. So I proceeded down that path. I could connect the kit to the newest version of MP, but it said I need a "Profiler" version of FW on my kit. I had downloaded the compiled non-Profiler version. 

This is where it went off the rails. When created a brand new project with the kit and a 24V motor selected from the default group of motors and I checked the Motor Profiler box before generating code I got two very different projects between the first project I did based on the example project mentioned above and the one I created new with the Motor Profiler box checked. Very different when viewed in the IDE.  I have enclosed some of pics of the results.

 

Any idea what's happening? The project structure is very different in the "motor control"  area. Tons of errors. Trying to not hunt down and fix all these errors. Why is so different? What am I missing? Need developer help.
