When the Device Configurator is used outside of the ModusToolbox™ environment, such as TLEXXX, it will not have the ModusToolbox™ application context. In the current stand-alone use case, the personalities and device-db are intended to be shipped in a CMSIS pack, typically distributed via Infineon Developer Center, that is used in µVision. The Device Configurator can be run as a GUI and via the command line.

Install Infineon Device Configurator​

The installer for the Infineon Device Configurator is provided on Linux, macOS, and Windows. At this time, using the tool with Keil µVision IDE outside of the ModusToolbox™ environment is only supported on Windows as the Keil µVision IDE is only available for that operating system. The installer can be downloaded here: http://www.infineon.com/idc

Launch the

deviceconfigurator_<version>.<build #>_windows_x64.exe

installer and follow the installer wizard steps. We recommend installing as current user.

In most cases, the installer adds the

Run Device Configurator <version>

item to the

Tools

menu in the Keil µVision IDE when the

Add a menu item to run Device Configurator

task (by default) is selected on the Custom Installation page. If needed, you can

Add menu item to µVision manually

. after the installer finishes.



Note:

The installer has options to open the Device Configurator tool and the text file release notes. Opening the tool this way will not be in the context of a supported project loaded in Keil µVision, and tool will open without any configuration information with a message to that effect. We recommend deselecting this option on the installer, and opening the tool from the Keil µVision IDE in the context of a supported project. See the

Run Device Configurator

section.

CMSIS Pack​

In order to use devices such as TLE994x_5x in the Keil µVision IDE, you need to install the appropriate CMSIS pack. For example, the

MOTIX_TLE994x_5x_PDL.pack

. You can find the pack on the Infineon Developer Center webpage: http://www.infineon.com/idc

Run Device Configurator​

Using the GUI​

To run the Device Configurator GUI tool, open the Keil µVision IDE with a project. Then, select the

Tools

>

Run Infineon Device Configurator <version>

. If you don't see the menu item, refer to

section 2.4

.



Note:

This menu entry is for use with projects created out of supported CMSIS packs and

not

for applications exported from the ModusToolbox™ ecosystem. The CMSIS packs include the relevant files to be used via that menu entry. If you launch the Device Configurator without having a supported project loaded in Keil µVision, it may fail to open, and there may not be any warning or message.

With a supported project loaded, the IDE launches the Device Configurator with the opened

design.modus

file located in the current project:



When you save updates, the Device Configurator generates/updates source code in the

GeneratedSource

directory next to the

design.modus

file. See the

Code generation

section for more details.

Using the command line​

The Device Configurator executable can be run from the command line, and it also has a "cli" version of the executable as well. Running the executable from the command line can be useful as part of batch files or shell scripts to re-generate the source code based on the latest configuration settings. The exit code for the executable is zero if the operation is successful, or non-zero if the operation encounters an error. For more information about the command-line options, run the executable using the

-h

option.

Add menu item to µVision manually​

In most cases, the installer adds the menu item to the Keil µVision IDE automatically. It also extracts a

IntegrateToKeil.ps1

script to the

<installation folder>\resources

folder. If the

Tools

menu in the Keil µVision IDE does not contain the items to launch the Infineon Device Configurator, you can execute the script manually.

To run the script, open Windows Explorer and navigate to the resources folder (e.g.,

C:\Users\UserName\Infineon\Tools\InfineonDeviceConfigurator-<version>

), type "powershell" in address bar.



In the Windows PowerShell window, run the following command to change the Restricted (by default) execution policy to AllSigned to allow running signed script:

Set-ExecutionPolicy AllSigned -scope Process -Confirm:$False

And confirm changes by [

A

] and [

Enter

].



Then run the script:

.\IntegrateToKeil.ps1


The CLI can require confirmation of script run owned by Infineon Technologies publisher.

Please verify if the added Mag<Id>, Mfg<Id>, Mtx<Id>, Mid<Id> and Mex<Id> registry values are in the script output.

Remove menu item from µVision manually​

If you use the Device Configurator uninstaller, it will remove the

Run Device Configurator

menu item from the Keil µVision IDE automatically. To remove the item manually, follow these steps:

Open Windows Explorer and navigate to the resources folder (e.g.,

C:\Users<UserName>\Infineon\Tools\InfineonDeviceConfigurator-<version>

), type "powershell" in address bar.



In the Windows PowerShell window, run the following command to change the Restricted (by default) execution policy to AllSigned to allow running signed script:

Set-ExecutionPolicy AllSigned -scope Process -Confirm:$False

And confirm changes by [

A

] and [

Enter

].



Then run the script:

.\IntegrateToKeil.ps1 -u

Please verify the script output:
