CCS/TMDSHVMTRINSPIN: C2000 Instaspin_Universal GUI

Hi thanks for the reply ,

1.i didn't import the gui into the gui composer, i don't know how to to this, can you please provide steps for this?

2. I update the project properties in code composer studio (CCS_V_10), I change the target configuration to xds100 and tms320f280049c.

3. After changing the target configuration I rebuild the project and i put this  . Out file in this folder "Guicomposer/ runtime/ c2000 instaspin universal gui/ target  ".

4. I do all these for TMDSHVMTRINSPIN  version lab only.

Thank you

When you find the GUI in dev.ti.com/gallery there should be some icons below the GUI description. When you hover over them, you'll see one is labeled "Import to GUI Composer"--click that one and it will take you to the GC editor. You can then go into Project -> Properties and click the NEXT button until you see where you can edit the connection settings and upload a new lab executable.

Hi thanks for the reply, i followed the steps provided by you, i got the below result, my hardware is connected. i didn't apply ant AC voltage and i didn't connect motor, now i am going to apply AC and connect motor, but i have some doubts,

1. when i apply AC  after connected to GUI or before connected to GUI ?

2. when i connect motor to the kit?

i got the below result

thank you

hi thanks for the reply,

There is no  sensor based example for TMS320F280049c +  TMDSHVMTRINSPIN development kit, i searched for sensor based example code in the below path " C:\ti\c2000\C2000Ware_MotorControl_SDK_3_00_01_00\solutions\tmdshvmtrinspin\f28004x\ccs " , can you please suggest me whare the senor based example is located. i found only sensor less example.

thank you

hello team,

thank you

Hi thanks for the reply, i followed the hardware guide, i put jumper settings as per the hv kit guide, and i am using isolation transformer. Now I connect motor, can I proceed with the steps  mentioned above?

Thank you

Thanks for the reply, I put the switches settings as per the gudie on control card...i falsh the is_motor id 5 example code  on tms320f280049c  control card, and i update user.h file also..

Thank you

Hi, thanks for the reply,

i connect the motor and apply the AC as the steps provided by you, my motor was identified correctly, after identifying the motor we go to  check RUN button, in GUI, but my motor is not spinning ,i have attached the GUI screen please find it, and help me to run the motor.

thank you

Hi, we are using pmsm motor with the below parameters, motor was identified  in the GUI, when we try to run the motor, there is no movement in motor,can you please support us to run the motor.

Please follow the InstaSPIN lab guide and the GUI guide, you should use the lab07 to run the motor with the identified motor parameters.

Recommend you run the related labs with CCS following the lab guide if you want to run your own motor.

Hi,

Just to inform, we are using HVPMSMMTR. To recap my situation: My hardware is:  TMDSHVMTRINSPIN (HV kit) +  TMDSCNCD280049C (control card) + HVPMSMMTR (motor) + TMDSADAP180TO100 (100 to 180 adapter)..

Step 1: In CCS10,I import project " is07_speed_control ": I have selected motor "Estun_EMJ_04APB22_A". Project saved and build - I have got app prog.out file
Step 2: In "C2000Ware_MotorControlSDK_InstaSPIN_GUI: app prog.out file is loaded; after loading  .out file we observe that LED(D3) on control card is starts blinking.
In the following screen (Instaspin FOC Instrumentation): "Motor identified" is highlighted & DCBUS voltage is shown as 0V (though HVKIT AC is off and we click enable system on GUI).
Step 3: Now AC to HVKIT is turned on.  DCBUS voltage is shown as 330V.

Observations: On RUN, motor doesn't respond. We measured Motor Winding's resistance = 2.2ohms (as per data sheet)

1. We followed "quick start guide" instructions line by line for Jumper settings of HV Kit, Control card and 180-100 adapter.
2. We followed "GUI guide" instructions line by line
3. We followed "Lab guide" instructions line by line for is07_speed_control .

Observations: We also changed HVPMSMMTR parameters  like Max Current to 6A, Start current to 9A. But Motor still doesn't rotate.

Where shall I focus my debugging?

thank you

You might run the lab with CCS to make sure that the motor can spin well first, and then use GUI to run it as you mentioned above.

Looks like the DC bus voltage is too low in the GUI above, please check if the DC power supply is applied to the kit correctly.

Thanks for the reply

thanks for the reply, i successfully spin my motor with different speeds

I have completed Lab 1 to 5 and tested various parameters of motor using CCS_v10, Lab is05_motor_id, PC based "C2000Ware_MotorControlSDK_InstaSPIN_GUI " , script " is05_motor_id.js "  , Now we want to spin motor without help of PC based GUI (C2000Ware_MotorControlSDK_InstaSPIN_GUI). I would like to flash the program in the tms320f280049c Control card and disconnect USB Jtag XDS100-V2,I expect the motor to run without help from PC based GUI and Jtag cable.

Could you please provide suggestions ?

thank you

Hi, thanks for the reply, 

I am able to configure and control the Motor using Lab 1 to 5, PC Based GUI by enabling System and Run button. Once the motor is identified the run button unchecked automatically. To run the motor, I am forced to recheck the Run button again.

Now I plan to control the motor, but without using “PC based GUI” / click Run button etc. I already completed the below 4 steps. My question is: Will it help if I enable “motorvars. flagRunIdentOnline” flag again to run the motor? If yes, how to enable the same? Or am I missing any other steps than mentioned below?

1. I go to structure volatile MOTOR_Vars_t motorVars = MOTOR_VARS_INIT; in ccs and I put the flagenable sys=true,and I change the runandonline falg=true as shown below.

2. I flash the code in control card, i add the java script file to watch window, I enabled the real time debugger in ccs. I get the below result in watch window.

3. The code stats identifying the motor and motor identified flag is set (watch window as below)

4.I did the above steps by putting the code in flash lib.

thank you

Hi thanks for the reply

Step1:  I added the below code lines in main file

Step 2:  “ motorVars.flagEnableSys = true   , motorVars.flagRunIdentAndOnLine = true “; shown in below image

Observation: AC is on, Motor connected, but Motor is not spinning. From the GUI (Screen shots as below / attached) - It looks it is waiting for ‘Run’ button ‘click equivalent’….

Trial: So I tried to set in code 

motorVars.flagRunIdentAndOnLine=true

What else is missing in my sequence?

Hi thanks for the reply,

I gone through lab07 example with identified motor parameters, also applied AC supply to hv-kit,I have attached the results in below images.

I gone through GUI guide and lab guide, in those guides the instructions are about to run the motor with GUI or ccs, but my main aim is to spin the motor without GUI or CCS(real time). How do i did this?

Thank you

Hi thanks for the reply,

We made the following modifications, to get the motor running without user interaction (or GUI) and from internal flash of controller. Please review these steps and confirm. After your confirmation, we will test it on the real hardware.

1. Before entering the first while(), we have set the following two flags and initialized one new 16-bit counter, before starting the initial motor identification process:
   1. a.      motorVars.flagEnableSys= true;
   2. motorVars.flagRunIdentAndOnLine = true;
2. When “motorVars.flagMotIdentified == true” condition is true, we start incrementing the 16-bit counter. The time base is taken from the 1ms Time Base (tick).
3. After this 10sec (10000 x 1ms) delay, again we set the “motorVars.flagRunIdentAndOnLine = true” to continue the motor running.

 The code changes are given below. After your confirmation, we will test it on the target hardware (with motor connected and the AC supply given). We will flash it in the controller and run in a standalone mode. Are these modifications correct to safely test with our HV Kit again?

// ------------ ************* -------------

   gu16TickCounter = 0;

   motorVars.flagEnableSys = true;

   motorVars.flagRunIdentAndOnLine = true;

   while(motorVars.flagEnableSys == false)

   {

    }

   // loop while the enable system flag is true

   while(motorVars.flagEnableSys == true)

   {

       // 1ms time base

        if(HAL_getTimerStatus(halHandle, HAL_CPU_TIMER1))

       {

          motorVars.timerCnt_1ms++;

           HAL_clearTimerFlag(halHandle, HAL_CPU_TIMER1);

           if (motorVars.flagMotorIdentified == true)

           {

               if (gu16TickCounter > 10000)

               {

                   motorVars.flagRunIdentAndOnLine = true;

               }

               else

               {

                   gu16TickCounter++;

               }

           }

// ------------ ************* -------------

thank you 

hi thanks for the reply, i followed all the steps, my motor is running but with low speed, even i changed the reference speed for different values but there is no change in speed of the motor, can you help me to solve this?, 

thank you

How did you set the reference speed since the code is running from flash without using CCS or GUI? Could you please have a detailed description of your questions including the operation steps and the changes in the example lab?

Any loading on the motor? Did you set the right maximum current according to the motor?

You might run the motor with the example lab and CCS first, to make sure that you can run the motor as you expect first, and then go to the next step without using CCS.     

Hi, thanks for the reply,  i put the code into RAM firstly i ran the motor with GUI ,with reference speed of 20Hz, i didn't do any changes in the example lab05,i followed the gui_quick_start_guide and MotorControl SDK InstaSPIN Lab Guide from the below path, i put the motor parameters as per the data sheet of motor" C:\ti\c2000\C2000Ware_MotorControl_SDK_3_00_01_00\solutions\common\sensorless_foc\docs ", but when i changing the reference speed and acceleration  in GUI there is no change in the speed of the motor,  what i need to do to change the speed of the motor?

thank you
