TMS320F280049C: motorcontrol SDK on : Instaspin FOC examples and Instaspin Universal GUI ?

Part Number: TMS320F280049C

Team,
Could you please help with the below question from customer?

Currently taking motorcontrolSDK / Instaspin FOC lab example is13_fwc_mtpa_eabi as reference:
https://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore/node?node=A__ACvH1Xw6yEeC0oUVcd9tkw__motor_control_c2000ware_sdk_software_package__0.jXikd__LATEST&search=instaspin

on a customer F280049C board and modifying hal.c as per our configuration. 
I have tried using Instaspin Universal GUI to connect to our ESC but it fails to connect. I have few questions regarding the setup:

  1. I see that Instaspin GUI can be used to modify parameters but since we have custom board and not an EVM, is it still possible to use it for our application, even for initial testing to see if the microcontroller is flashed properly and to retrieve the control parameters set in hal.c 

  2. We use CAN communication, would it be possible to implement it and do the motor control testing( Since I guess instaspin uses UART communication)

Thanks in advance,

Anthony

    No, only for the specific kit.

    No. The GUI only support JTAG based communication, not UART and CAN.
