I am interested in using the TMCL IDE for testing, measuring and designing stepper motor systems, currently using TMC-2209 ICs, but not Trinamic eval kits. (Actually, a board with RP2040 MCU, running CircuitPython, FYI). I'm in the midst of porting a stripped-down version of the PyTrinamic library to run on the MCU.
So the question is: What choices do I have for TMCL IDE I/O (API) with my board? Note that I'm talking about the application-level API (e.g., TMCL text commands, commands packed in a 5-byte packet, etc.), not the physical-level protocol (serial over USB). Is my question answered by a current manual for the IDE? Is there a current manual? (All of the ones I found online are quite old, back at the 3.x version.)
I would also appreciate getting any recommendations for simpler ways of achieving my goal: Creating a test environment with similar capabilities to the TMCL IDE using target boards with MCUs such as the RP2040 and TMC IC driver chips.
TIA,
Mike
