6 Connection and first execution of the electronic
speed controller (ESC)
program
For the correct usage and the first run of the B-G431B-ESC1 Discovery kit, the procedure
explained in
Section 6.1 or Section 6.2 is suggested.
The ESC board is usually powered with a battery (on J5 and J6 input connectors). It can be
supplied with a laboratory power supply during software development. In this case, it is
recommended to disconnect the power supply wires when the supply is switched-off while
USB is connected (Some power supply types may cause board overheating in this case).
6.1 First case: daughterboard not removed
1. Connect a micro USB cable to the USB port on the daughterboard as shown in
Figure 12, and verify if the green led (D5) is turned on in the main board.

2. Connect the other part of the cable to the PC port and run the ST MC Workbench tool
for motor and parameter configuration (see
Figure 13).
3. Generate and upload the firmware code into the STM32G431CB MCU with the
available IDE tool.
