About this manual

The Reference Design Kit Graphical User Interface (RDK‑GUI) provides a simple way to set motor control system parameters for various three‑phase motor types, including PMDC/AC, BLDC/AC, AC induction and PMAC/BLAC. Users select motor type, pole pairs, speed regulation, driving mode and other options, which are saved into a generated .h header file for compilation.

The manual covers installation of the PC software, hardware hookup, configuration of the standalone RDK libraries, advanced motor settings, and steps to generate source files and compile the firmware with STVD7 or other supported compilers. It also lists the limited features available in the reference kit, such as Voltage Mode, Sensorless detection, and Free Wheeling stop condition.
