LAUNCHXL-F28027: Running C2000 Launchpad with motorware software without the GUI?

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-F28027
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV8305, MOTORWARE

Team,

We have an engineer who is working with a C2000 launchpad and the DRV8305 EVM to spin a motor. Is there a way to use the motorware software to spin a motor without having to connect the laptop and run the GUI?

Thank you.

    Let me make a correction. How can he load the C2000 with the setting's programmed in the motorware software.

    If he's modified the user.h settings and wants to load a lab onto the device, you would compile the project into a .out with the configuration set to FLASH as normal. The code should work upon reset then.

    If they want to debug without the GUI, this is also possible, simply select FLASH or RELEASE configuration settings and debug as normal in the CCS window.

    Sean,

    I see, i understand the software is loaded now but after making changes to the User.h file how do i change the speed of the motor? After compiling the code the motor does not move.

    Julio,

    Have you gone through the Motorware lab guides? The lab guide for lab2b will show you how to interact with the code using the CCS watch window. In general, you need to load the Javascript file (*.js) for whichever lab you're running in CCS, which will populate the expressions window with important variables for each lab. From there, you can enable/disable the system and change the speed/torque, using the correct variables.
