Motor Control I/O Board User’s Manual
condition is displayed on the seven-segment LED. For details on the protection functions implemented in hardware, consult the user’s manual for MC-PWR-LV low-voltage power module. The sample code software also has built-in fault detection algorithms as an extra measure of protection. Consult the software manual for details.
In standalone (SELF) mode, the LED displays the following fault conditions:
Motor over-current: | “O – C – “ |
Motor stall fault: | “– – – –“ |
Hall sensor fault: | “H A L L“ |
In PC (GUI) mode, the LED displays “PC” all the time and the GUI will displays all fault conditions. Refer to section 10 for more information.
6. Software Setup
The software CD-ROM bundled with the kit contains PDF versions of this document, the user manuals and electrical schematics for all hardware module components, and the entire sample project program for the NEC Electronics 78K0 firmware-based development tools environment. The software sample code is supplied in source format and can be modified as needed.
The following sections describe NEC Electronics America’s development tools environment, how to install it on your computer, and how to rebuild and download executable code to the microcontroller’s flash memory.
Before proceeding with the tools installation, however, refer to all of the documentation on the CD- ROM for detailed information about the starter kit and the sample software.
7. Software Installation
1. Insert the CD-ROM supplied with your MC-LVKIT-714 starter kit.
2. The CD-ROM should initialize automatically. If it doesn’t, click Start Run. Browse to your CD-ROM drive and select Motol_Control.exe.
3. Select MC-LVKIT-714from the drop down list.
