Latest Beta Version of MotoHawk

2010a Beta3

This is Beta 3 for features in the MotoHawk 2010a release.

Support for MATLAB 7.5 (R2007b) to MATLAB 8.0 (R2010a) and, in a subsequent service pack, MATLAB 8.1 (R2010b).

This release supports MATLAB 7.5 (R2007b) to MATLAB 7.9 (R2009b).

Support for (pre-release) MATLAB 8.0 (R2010a) is not yet scheduled (The Mathworks made this Pre-Release available to our developers today 14-Dec.).

New features! This beta contains additional structural support for new features.
MPC 5xx targets: Add support for encoder 36+1 crank with 12+1 cam
ECM70: Add support for FrequencyIn behavior on CNK, CNKDG, CAM pins
ECM70: Add support for ECM-S12X-070-1002 (ECM70-1002) module
CCP Slave protocol handler: change default behavior to IDLE_EVENT-triggered priority

IMPORTANT!! Please use Windows Control Panel "Add/Remove Programs" to un-install any previous MotoHawk install before running these new installers.

IMPORTANT!! MotoTune / MotoServerRuntime 8.13.7.87 (or later) are REQUIRED for MotoHawk 2010a Beta 3. These may also be downloaded from the mcs.woodward.com website, Support, Downloads page.

IMPORTANT!! If you have been using GCC in earlier MotoHawk releases, you will need to change your GCC installation for MotoHawk 2009b Beta 3 and subsequent releases.

IMPORTANT!! For customers using MotoHawk Custom Security blocks, you must use version 1.0.4 (or newer) of your security block for MotoHawk 2009b Beta 3 and subsequent releases.

MotoHawk 2010a releases require a valid MotoHawk license to do a code-generation build. You can verify the licensing in your silver MotoTron USB licensing token (dongle) using the MotoTron License Viewer (Start, All Programs, MotoTools, MotoTron License Viewer). "MotoHawk (v5.0)" or "MotoHawk (2010a)" is required to use MotoHawk 2010a releases. To use MotoHawk 2010a releases, most users will need to have MotoHawk 2010a permissions added to their license tokens, and may also need to update their software maintenance agreements.

Memory Questions

How is memory initialized, without having to build a specific flash file, for a new application?

There should be an init checkbox in the fixed Non-Volatile manager window. This will allow you to say if you want the app to load the default values or values previously on the module. This should take care of initializing the values yourself.

Similarly, the same result is done by performing an offline calibration change in the System | NonVolatile Storage | NonVolatile Storage Config | NonVolatileRestoreOnFirstStartup calibration. After changing this cal to "Load saved application values on next startup," you just need to merge back into your programming file, and then use the merged file for programming.

Retrieving Encoder Patterns

In MATLAB you can run the following command to give you the list of encoder patterns available for any module: (motohawk_get_encoder_types('ECM-5554-112-0904-xD'))'.

In MotoHawk2009bSP0 this should return:

   '60 Minus 2 - 2-Stroke - No CAM'
   '60 Minus 2 - 4-Stroke - No CAM'
   '60 Minus 2 - 4-Stroke - Half-Moon CAM'
   '60 Minus 2 - 4-Stroke - Single-Tooth CAM'
   '4X - 4-Stroke - No CAM'
   '4X - 4-Stroke - Half-Moon CAM'
   '4X - 4-Stroke - Single-Tooth CAM'
   'GM 24Xe - 4-Stroke - No CAM'
   'GM 24Xe - 4-Stroke - Half-Moon CAM'
   '24 Minus 2 - 4-Stroke - No CAM'
   '24 Minus 2 - 4-Stroke - Half-Moon CAM'
   '36X - 4-Stroke - Half-Moon CAM'
   '36X - 4-Stroke - Single-Tooth CAM'
   '36 Minus 1 - 4-Stroke - 720 Degree Pattern'
   '36 Minus 2 - 4-Stroke - No CAM'
   '36 Minus 2 - 4 Stroke - Half-Moon CAM'
   '36 Minus 2 - 4 Stroke - Single-Tooth CAM'
   '32 Minus 2 - 2-Stroke'

You can also select the module in the target definition block and then look at the list in the encoder definition block.
