ST ControlBD-7FMC2 User Manual

INTRODUCTION

The Reference Design Kit Graphical User Interface (RDK-GUI) provides an easy way to configure motor
control system parameters. These parameters are related to the user's motor type and model. The param-
eters which can be configured include the following:
type of the motor driven;
– 3PH PMDC/AC or BLDC/AC (trapezoidal driven), or
– 3PH AC induction motor, or
– 3PH PMAC or BLAC (sinusoidal driven)
number of the poles pairs of the motor; and
control method.
Other, more specific parameters include types of control (i.e., Ramp Up Acceleration Speed for the "3PH
BLDC/AC trapezoidal" or Variable Frequency Control for the "3PH AC Induction" motor).
These settings reside in the .h header file used with the design kit software library (see
dalone RDK Libraries, page
manually by the user. To generate the firmware for the ST7MC microcontroller, the .h file and the software
library must be compiled using the Cosmic or Metrowerks compiler in the ST Visual Develop v3.2.0 or Soft-
ec STDV7 v3.10 environments. The firmware is then downloaded into the microcontroller memory (see

Some features of the GUI are disabled and cannot be used with the RDK at this time, but they are left to
illustrate the complete features of the microcontroller. If you want to use these features, please refer to the
