I'm using the MCTPTX1AK324 development board for motor development,，Right now，when I press button 3, the motor can run，I need to use the MCAT host computer to adjust the settings，But when using freeMASTER with the serial connection, it shows an error: connection timeout, 0x8000 0101，Can you take a look and see if the demo program needs any changes?
Currently, the demo program has some code blocked. Initializing GD3000 and IPCF on the M3 causes the program to freeze, so we blocked them based on the FAE's suggestion.
3Q
Hello,
here are some generic hints to resolve FreeMASTER connection timeout issues. If these will not help, I will try to reach out to motor control team for more specific help.
Generally, timeout means the board does not answer FreeMASTER commands. I would recommend the following:
1. Make sure you are running the original unmodified software received from NXP and use a original board kit.
2. Check connection port and cable. In FreeMASTER go to Project/Options and check the serial COM port. It can happen there are more ports in your system and you have chosen a wrong one.
3. Use Tools/Connection Wizard to probe different COM ports.
4. Try to use FreeMASTER with a different application, ideally one of FreeMASTER sample applications if these are available for your target board.
5. Advanced: Hook an oscilloscope or logic analyzer to serial communication lines to see if the RX and TX signals are active. Put a breakpoint to FMSTR_ProtocolDecoder to see if the code ever stops there. If not, the commands do not even reach the MCU.
Regards,
Michal
