| mclv2_pic32mk_mcm_pim.X |
Modify the MCLV2 Development Board
- Modify the MCLV2 development board for higher current capability- TC1 modifications. Refer the MCLV2 Development Board modification guide for more details.
Setting Up MCLV2 Development Board
- Mount the PIC32MK MCM Motor
Control Plug In Module on U9 header.
- Place the “External Opamp Configuration” Matrix board at J14.
- Motor Connections:
- Phase U - M1
- Phase V - M2
- Phase W - M3
- Jumper Settings:
- JP1 - Curr, JP2 - Curr, JP3 - Curr
- In order to use RS232 port for X2CScope Communication JP4 - UART, JP5 - UART
- In order to use USB port for X2CScope Communication JP4 - USB, JP5 - USB
- Power the board with a 24V DC
supply using J2 or BP1-BP2. For additional safety, it is recommended to use
a current limited power supply while testing this software demonstration on
a non-default hardware and motor.
Running the Application
- Build and Program the application with
src/pic32mk_mcm_zsmt_firmware.hexusing Microchip’s IPE. - Press switch S2 to start the motor
- Vary potentiometer to change the speed of the motor
- Press switch S2 to stop the motor
- Press switch S2 again to start the motor
- Monitor graphs on X2C Scope
