Need help getting DRV8301 Kit to execute standalone from FLASH

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8301, LAUNCHXL-F28027F, MOTORWARE

I have the DRV8301 Booster Kit / LaunchXL-F28027F kit shown here. I also have motorware 15. I have a motor connected.

I am using the instaspin projects, specifically lab11a. I am running this lab in the default "FLASH" config. I have "FLASH" defined for the project.  I tweaked the tuning parameters and added a line of code to set   gMotorVars.Flag_Run_Identify = true so the motor automatically spins at startup.

I can press the debug button in CCS6, wait for everything to download, then press the run button and my motor starts spinning as desired.

I then remove power, change S1-3 from ON to OFF (to change from using JTAG to boot from FLASH), remove the USB connection and then re-apply power and the motor makes strange noises and does not spin. So it appears that something is running, but not what I want.

I have read numerous posts on the forums but have not found any solutions to my problem. How do I get Lab11a to execute standalone from FLASH?

Thanks,

Jeff
