TMS570_SAFETY_MCU_DEMOS: N2HET Capture

Part Number: TMS570_SAFETY_MCU_DEMOS

Looking to use the N2HET to read the duty cycle of a PWM signal.

I dont have the HET idE (although I tried to download it, but the TI page with the supposed link does nothing)

Firstly, I was able to use Halcogen to create a PWM out...then I was able to vary the duty cycle and period dynamiclly using the HET functions

(i.e.         pwmSetDuty(hetRAM2, 0, 75);)

the minimum frequency of the PWM I will be measuring is 100Hz....max will be most likly be under 1KHz

I tried to set up the "Capture" block in Halcogen....and then use the void capGetSignal(hetRAMBASE_t * hetRAM, uint32 cap, hetSIGNAL_t *signal) function

......to no avail unfortunately...

just looking for a piece of example code, or "direction from an expert" on how I can do this..?

(with the capGetSignal function:  set up Halcogen to use Capture 0 directed to N2HET2-14,

I then created a variable "TempPWMA"....and in the code I call:   capGetSignal(hetRAM2, 14, TempPWMA) ;

???
one more thing....I'm not the best coder...just trying to do some simple things for testing hardware.

Per usual  I appreciate any help/response.
