It took me about 33 hours to get the motor running, mostly because I had installed the latest version of Kinetis Design Studio (3.2) but it appears that Kinetis Motor Suite doesn't work with the latest KDS and it wasn't until I tried the older KDS3.0 that things started to work. Here is a short video to show that the Kinetis Motor Suite does work if the right KDS is installed:
I will have to experiment with the Kinetis Motor Suite to see how it can be used to program the motor for my application. There is still a lot I don't understand about the Kinetis system.
I have also procured most of the chassis materials for my system stand, but it is going to be built from raw materials, so there will be quite a lot of metal bashing and woodworking to do.
Then I need to start getting a Bluetooth interface setup to control the system remotely.
