Error returned when trying to read the Power Quality library's "pack" file into the Keil development tool.

Hi,

I was able to unzip the pack file onto a fresh Keil installation and build the project. Please ensure that you are using Keil MDK 5.34.

These are the steps that I followed.

1. Unzipped the Power Quality library evaluation version downloaded from here .

2. Double click on the .pack file within if uVision is added to path. Or open with Keil's PackUnzip.exe . Press next and accept License agreement. Project should automatically unzip and give a prompt "unzip successfully completed "

3. Follow Examples Pg31 onwards of PQ Library user guide to configure uvison to run pqlib example. When prompted install missing packs.

4. Navigate to Keil projects installation directory and open the pqlib_example.project.

5. Make sure the project is user-writable. (run keil as administrator)

5. Build in Keil with appropriate Device/Target . Then Flash the .hex file generated to board as shown is PQ user guide.

Regards Aditya

Thank you for the detailed explanation. I am currently using Keil MDK 5.43. I am trying to access 5.34 version with no success. I am assuming the library example should work with newer versions of Keil MDK too

Hi Aditya,

Thank you for trying this and your detailed instructions. Here is a snap shot of the version i am using which is 5.43.1.0. 

As I had mention previously, we  have already downloaded the PQ Library back in 2024 but the version  is the same as yours.

Questions: 

Could the newer version of the microvision tool be checking more? 

How can I get the particular version you are using? 

If I already downloaded it and accepted the agreement do I need to accept it again to get a new version? 

Can you share the PDSC file so I can compare it with mine?

Thanks - mike

Hi Aditya,

Can you retest using the latest release of the Keil Micro Vision tool (Version 5.43.1) to make sure it works?  The tool version you have listed is only available with a license. when you try to get 5.34 it is asking for a LIC or PSN?  

The Section 8 "Examples"  of the ADSW-PQ-CLS Power quality library User's Guide  indicates that everything should work with Version 5.34 or later,  "The example projects have been developed for Keil Microvision for ARM (Version 5.34.0.0 or later) which can be downloaded from www.keil.com for evaluation" 

It appears that other users are experiencing the same issue with the latest version of the Keil Micro Vision tool.

1. Can you retest using the latest release of the Keil Micro Vision tool (Version 5.43.1.0) to make sure it works?  
2. If it does not work on version 5.43.1.0 can you provide us with the 5.34.0.0  version of the tool that works?

Hi Aditya,

Any updates related to the issues with it not working on newer versions? Is anyone looking into this for a fix since the 5.34 is no longer available and the PQ Library does not work with 5.43?
