CCS/DRV8711: DRV8711 Example

Part Number: DRV8711
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2553,

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,  I'm using the BOOST-DRV8711 with the Launchpad using an MSP430G2553.  I'm trying to figure out how to use the DRV8711 to move a motor controller.  TI has example code I've uploaded with code composer studio, BOOST-DRV8711_FIRMWAREV1.1.out.  I've started the GUI which interfaces with this and the motor runs great.  My objective is to write my own application in the MSP430 to run the motor, but I can't decipher anything from the example firmware.  There's nothing discussing accelerations or velocities.  Is there something more straightforward I can learn from?  I'm not sure where to start.  I've used the 8711 users manual and can successfully write to the registers.  I can move the motor poorly by toggling the step pin.  How do I find functions to execute move profiles.  Where do I find the documentation?

thx

Matt
