Extra information


This section is unfinished. Don't use until this notice is removed.

Wiring

Basic wiring scheme

Simucube basic wiring scheme.jpg

SimuCUBE basic wiring scheme. Please see the motor position sensor table for the DB15 connector pinout.

RJ45 connectors

Simucube rj45 wiring example.jpg

Example of how to wire buttons and analog signals to SimuCUBE.

Rj45 terminal block.jpg

Easiest way to wire the rj45 connectors are through a terminal block adapter such as this.

Serial display

Simucube serial display connector.jpg

Pin header to connect a serial display.

Pin headers & other connectors

The SimuCUBE has few pin headers for future upgrades and features. These are reserved until future notice.

Configuration files

Note: this is heavily work in progress. This section will be on separate page with more detailed step-by-step guide.

SimuCUBE firmware installation/upgrade

Please read the following guide, how to update the STM32F4 firmware.

SimuCUBE firmware files

FW version FW file Description/changes

IONI firmware

Read the following guide how to upgrade the IONI firmware:

The latest firmware can be found here:

Note: SimuCUBE requires IONI firmware 1.5.0 beta or newer! Also be sure to use latest Granity version where you can choose Granity parameter Electrical interfaceCEI to be SimuCUBE. Choosing this mode is necessary to make IONI drive operate on SimuCUBE.

Motor configuration files for Granity (.drc)

If you have a working configuration file for a specific motor, we would like to add it here.

Note: the inertia of the wheel affects the motor tuning parameters, so a configuration file for a specific motor can only be regarded as an example. Please refer to the Servo tuning basics and tuning torque controller pages later in this document.

Motor name Motor model Notes Configuration file Contributor
Mige (small) Mige 130ST-M10010 1 kW, 10 Nm (20 Nm peak) file here someday Granite Devices Inc.
Mige (large) Mige 130ST-M15015 2.3 kW, 15 Nm (30 Nm peak) file here someday Granite Devices Inc.
Lenze MCS12H15L 1.6 kW, 11.4 Nm (29 Nm peak) file here someday Granite Devices Inc.

Links and miscellaneous notes

If you are not using a ready configuration file for Granity, then please read servo tuning basics and torque tuning very carefully to get the idea how it's done. Every servo type requires specific parameters.

Please read also these pages to get the best possible experience of a SimuCUBE FFW system.
