Introduction
Safety precautions
Please note the following warnings regarding the hazards associated with development systems.
Table 1 Safety precautions
Warning: The DC link potential of this board is up to 400 VDC. When measuring
voltage waveforms by oscilloscope, high voltage differential probes must be used.
Failure to do so may result in personal injury or death.
Warning: The evaluation or reference board contains DC bus capacitors which take
time to discharge after removal of the main supply. Before working on the drive
system, wait five minutes for capacitors to discharge to safe voltage levels. Failure to
do so may result in personal injury or death. Darkened display LEDs are not an
indication that capacitors have discharged to safe voltage levels.
Warning: The evaluation or reference board is connected to the grid input during
testing. Hence, high-voltage differential probes must be used when measuring voltage
waveforms by oscilloscope. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or death.
Darkened display LEDs are not an indication that capacitors have discharged to safe
voltage levels.
Warning: Remove or disconnect power from the drive before you disconnect or
reconnect wires, or perform maintenance work. Wait five minutes after removing
power to discharge the bus capacitors. Do not attempt to service the drive until the bus
capacitors have discharged to zero. Failure to do so may result in personal injury or
death.
Caution: The heat sink and device surfaces of the evaluation or reference board may
become hot during testing. Hence, necessary precautions are required while handling
the board. Failure to comply may cause injury.
Caution: Only personnel familiar with the drive, power electronics and associated
machinery should plan, install, commission and subsequently service the system.
Failure to comply may result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.
Caution: The evaluation or reference board contains parts and assemblies sensitive to
electrostatic discharge (ESD). Electrostatic control precautions are required when
installing, testing, servicing or repairing the assembly. Component damage may result
if ESD control procedures are not followed. If you are not familiar with electrostatic
control procedures, refer to the applicable ESD protection handbooks and guidelines.
Caution: A drive that is incorrectly applied or installed can lead to component damage
or reduction in product lifetime. Wiring or application errors such as undersizing the
motor, supplying an incorrect or inadequate AC supply, or excessive ambient
temperatures may result in system malfunction.
Caution: The evaluation or reference board is shipped with packing materials that
need to be removed prior to installation. Failure to remove all packing materials that
are unnecessary for system installation may result in overheating or abnormal
operating conditions.

3.2.1 MCEWizard setup overview
After installing the MCEWizard, the shortcut for MCEWizard appears on the Windows desktop. Double-click the
shortcut to open the MCEWizard, and configure the parameters for evaluation boards and motor. Figure 5
shows the “Welcome Page” for MCEWizard, where the MADK control board or power board can be selected via
the pull-down list. Infineon continues to release new MADK controller and power boards. Therefore, it could
happen that some of the newest power boards are not pre-configured in the MCEWizard tool, and cannot be
selected via the pull-down menu. In that case, the user should select another power board (as similar as
possible) and follow the MCEWizard setup steps by entering the parameter values which are specific to the
chosen board. Make sure both “I have modified the circuit board” and “Enable advanced question” checkmarks
are selected (or check “Customized Design for Expert User”). Please refer to the user manual of the
corresponding power board for additional information.
After selecting the MADK control and power board, start the MCEWizard system setup procedure by clicking the
“Next” button in the right bottom corner as shown in Figure 5.

iMOTION™ MADK system enables users to easily test different combinations of control and power boards with
their motors. Users should be familiar with the system level parameters which are related to the motor used.
