Using ETAS INCA

youngkugpark — Tue, 22 Dec 2020 09:29:34 GMT

Dear All,

design a vehicle control program using MBD Toolbox and MPC5744p and monitor and calibrate the control variables through FreeMaster.
FreeMaster is a very good program, but the increased number of monitoring data creates difficulties, so I want to use the ETAS INCA that I used so far.
So I looked up related contents to connect with INCA in Community.
For example
1) Attempted to modify the .tmf file to create the necessary files (.hex, .s19 and .bin) for connection failed.
2) In particular, there was no way to create the .a2l file.

As mentioned earlier, I work in an automatic code generation environment using Simulink-based MBD Toolbox and S32 Design Studio.

I've been thinking about ways to connect INCA in one way or another, but I'd like to ask for help with my concerns.
If you have any experience in resolving the above (1), 2) or if you are currently using it, please kindly ask for detailed explanation.

Best Regards,

Peter

Hello @youngkugpark ,

MBDT comes with native support only for the FreeMaster tool. You should also be aware that there is a second option for the FreeMaster, which is called FreeMaster Lite. Maybe this will help you.

I don't know how the ETAS INCA works so I am afraid that I can not help you with that...

Now for generating the hex/bin/s19 MBDT comes with the compiler files so you have to press the following commands in order to get the desired files.

Run the mbd_find_mpc_root command to find the install path of the MBDT. With that path you can type the following command "{Path}\tools\S32DS\build_tools\powerpc-eabivle-4_9\bin\powerpc-eabivle-objcopy.exe -O ihex gpio_mpc574x.elf gpio_mpc574x.hex" to generate the hex file.

If you want to embed all of the above commands in the Makefile and to create them automatically, please go to {Path}\mbdtbx_mpc574x\mbdtbx_mpc574x open the mbd_mpc574x.tmf and add the desired commands starting with the lines 558

Hope this helps,

Marius

Thank you, Marius Lucianand.
First, as you told me, I will make a related file and check if it is connected to the INCA I want to use.
And as you mentioned, we will consider using a FreeMaster Lite.

Happy New Year, Marius

As you said, I modified the .tmf file with the attachment and compiled it, but I couldn't get the file I wanted.
The compiled file was normally downloaded to the target board and verified to be functioning normally.

I have tried hard to find the cause of the file not being created, but I decided to ask you for help again.
Why can't I get the file I want?

Hello @youngkugpark ,

Thank you! I wish you all the best in 2021 :D!

So, in the generated folder you were not able to find the required file format after adding these lines of code?

Marius

Yes,

I added the line to the code (.tmf) as you told me, but the file I want is not created.

Can you share with me the log file from the code generation and code compiling?

Marius

Dear, Marius

I don't know how to make a code generation log file. I'm sorry.
However, it sends all the code generation results as attached.

Thank you very much.

Hello @youngkugpark

Apparently, there is more to change than that.

Let' try to generate them manually. For that go to the _mbd_rtw generated folder

Run the mbd_find_mpc_root command to find the install path of the MBDT. With that path you can type the following command "!{Path}\tools\S32DS\build_tools\powerpc-eabivle-4_9\bin\powerpc-eabivle-objcopy.exe -O ihex gpio_mpc574x.elf gpio_mpc574x.hex" to generate the hex file or the extension that you are interested in.

Hope this helps,

Marius

Hello, Marius

First of all, thank you for your help.

As you said, we did it as an attachment, but an error occurred.
The error is 'The specified path could not be found'.

Did I set the Matlab Path wrong?
If so, can you tell me what to do to solve this problem?

Hello, Marius

I attach another result.
This is done by compiling the file "gpio_mpc574x.slx" as you said, and then going to the _mbd_rtw folder to "!{Path}\tools\S32DS\build_tools\powerpc-eabivle-4_9\bin\powerpc-eabivle-objcopy.exe -O ihex gpio_mpc574x.This is the result of running elf gpio_mpc574x.hex".

Re: Using ETAS INCA

mariuslucianand — Fri, 08 Jan 2021 09:13:00 GMT

Hello @youngkugpark ,

You have to replace the {Path} with the output of the mbd_find_mpc_toolbox.

You have to open the gpio_mpc574x_mbd_rtw folder with the generated code just like in the image below.

For you, the command should be like this

!C:/MATLAB/ADD-Ons/Toolboxes/NXP_MBDToolbox_MPC57xx/tools/S32DS/build_tools/powerpc-eabvile-4_9/powerpc-eabvile-objcopy.exe -O -ihex gpio_mpc574x.el gpio_mpc574x.hex

Hope this helps,

Marius

Hello, Marius

As you said, I executed it with the attached file, but the following error message appears.
"Internal or external commands, programs you can run, or This is not a batch file."

Note that the executable file 'powerpc-eabvile-objcopy.exe' is in the "NXP_MBD Toolbox_MPC57xx/tools/S32DS/build_tools/powerpc-eabible-49/bin" folder as attached to my computer.

In my case, is it a problem with the program path?
I am currently using MBDT 3.2, S32DS_Power_V2.1 and MatLab 2019b.
So should I include all of these in my Matlab route?

Re: Using ETAS INCA

Hello, Marius

I apologize for not creating the file manually because of my foolish behavior.
I checked the Matlab path and corrected the problem and confirmed that the files I wanted were created by the manual method you said.

But I still can't create the files I want with the auto-code method that uses the .tmf files.

Best Regards,

Peter
