Mems configuration on Custom Board

[MRaff.1]

Hello, 

    after experimenting MEMS sensors with the IKS4A1, I developed a custom board based on STM32F407 CPU with the LSM6DSV16XTR accelerometer+gyroscope and LIS2MDLTR magnetometer.

The aim is to get board inclination and compass information with the maximum accuracy.

On CUBE-MX I select the LIS2MDLTR on the "Board Part Mag" section, the LSM6DSV16XTR on the "AccGyrQVar" section. 

Then I selected the MotionFX, MotionTL, and MotionEC libraries. 

Finally I choose "CUSTOM_TiltSensing" on "MEMS1_Application". At this point the yellow warning message imposed me to add the "MOTION_SENSOR" on the "Board Support Custom" section. It is not clear to me the reason of this and what does it means. 

In any case after I had configured all the parameters the connection with MEMS Studio produces a "Board not identified" message. 

Does it has some sense to define the MEMS1_application on CubeMx with a custom board? Is it possible to use Mems Studio with custom boards? 

 

Thank you for your support.

Hi @MRaff.1 ,

I think the problem is that you are uploading a custom FW to Nucleo Board using CubeMX... and this usecase is not supported.
In MEMS Studio we support FWs from X-CUBE-MEMS1 and those generated with Algobuilder.

Thank you for the reply Federica. 

I would point out I am not loading custom FW on Nucleo Board but I am trying to load Demo firmware from CubeMX on Custom Board.
