MCEWizard setup overview

After installing the MCEWizard, the shortcut for MCEWizard appears on the Windows desktop. Double click the
shortcut to open the MCEWizard and configure the parameters for evaluation boards or motor. Figure4 shows
the "Welcome Page" for MCEWizard, where the MADK control board or power board can be selected through
the pull-down list. Infineon keeps releasing new MADK controller and power boards. Therefore, it could happen
that some of the newest power boards are not pre-configured in the MCEWizard tool and cannot be selected
through the pull-down menu. In that case, the user should select any other power board (as similar as possible)
and follow the MCEWizard setup steps by entering the parameter values which are specific to the chosen board.
Make sure both "I have modified the circuit board" and "Enable advanced question" checkmarks are selected.
Please refer to the User Manual of the corresponding power board for additional information.
After selecting the MADK control and the power board, start the MCEWizard system setup procedure by clicking
the "Next" button in the right bottom corner as shown in Figure 4.

iMOTION™ MADK system enables users to easily test different combination of control and power board with
their motors. User should be familiar with the system level parameters which are related to the motor used.
There are very limited numbers of parameters which are specific to the control board or power board
hardware.
Table 4 provides the MCEWizard setup overview for hardware related parameters specific to EVAL-M1-IM818-A
power board. Similar tables will be available in each control board's User Manual. Combination of this table
and the corresponding table of the control board provides enough information to setup the MADK-based motor
drive system in shortest time.
