Renesas Motor Workbench provides powerful support for developers of motor control applications, allowing operation of motor control programs from a PC and extraction of data within programs.
Implements a GUI that allows more intuitive operation of the motor.
Read and write variables dynamically while driving a motor.
The following GUI for Servo control has been implemented. The Servo Adjustment screen is displayed when you select [Servo] from Select Tool in the Main Window.
Variable read and write functions executed by the RMW (GUI) are provided in a DLL, making it possible to create tools using Excel VBA or as .NET applications.
The download package contains both a standard communication library and a built-in communication library. Embedding the built-in communication library in the motor control program allows you to perform simple debugging using a USB-serial conversion board instead of a communication board compatible with Renesas Motor Workbench. Supported MCUs are the RA6T2, RA6T3, and RA4T1 (with support for additional MCUs planned for future release).
The number of points of waveform display data that can be displayed using the Analyzer module is limited, but other functions can be used in the same way as when using a communication board.
