MBDT S32k358 missing configuration in S32k config tool

[primo]

Hello, I am currently working with the 800V BMS, which the BMU has s32k358 as its controller. When i was trying to flash the example of hvbmu2_read_s32ct with hardware board setting as S32k358-Q172, i found out that it is missing configurations relating to the BCC MCC33775A in the external configuration tool (S32k config tool). To be specific, it is missing the "trascation descriptor". But, i was able to find the bcc_775a configuration with hardware board setting as S32k358-Q172. 

I tried to add such configuration block mannually yet unsucessful

The question is, why is the s32k358 missing configurations relating to the external BCC module? And if it is not supported, how can i manually add it to the s32k358 using S32k config tool? Or how can i communicate with BCC_775a?

Thanks.

Hello @primo,

First of all, not having the BCCs inside the S32CT looks to me like a malfunction appeared during the installation process of the toolboxes. Also, I am not sure if you are running the latest version of the MBDT for BMS, because the latest one introduces the examples for the HVBMU with the K358 (ok, not with the MC33775 but with the MC33774, but this can be easily added inside the S32CT configuration) https://community.nxp.com/t5/NXP-Model-Based-Design-Tools/NXP-Model-Based-Design-Toolbox-for-BMS-v1-...

Please run a 'ver' command inside MATLAB's Command Window and check if you have the following toolbox versions. If you don't have them, please update to the latest version of the MBDT for BMS 1.1.0, and the installation process shall solve the issue you have.

Model-Based Design Toolbox for BMS Series             Version 1.1.0       (R2021a-R2023a)
Model-Based Design Toolbox for S32K3xx Series         Version 1.4.2       (R2021a-R2023a)

Hope this helps,
Marius

Hello, thanks for the proposed solution. I realized that i haven't downloaded the MBDT for BMS. 

However, I am having trouble making editions on the block from BMS toolbox. The external configuration tool failed to open and an error message as printed below, is printed to the matlab console. The transaction descriptor configuration is still missing for the S32k358 board settings. 

"Failure in open_config_tool(line 0) : Index exceeds the number of array elements. Index must not exceed 0."

I have tried to install and reinstall both toolboxes and it didn't help. I am not sure why it is happening. Could there be anything that leads to this error? Thanks.
