SensorPal Crashing

I'm getting this error as well.

Win10 ver21H1 64bit i7-3820 16GB ram, all other applications stopped. Not virtualised, bare metal

.net framework 528372 (Windows 10 May 2020 Update and Windows 10 October 2020 Update and Windows 10 May 2021 Update)

sensor pal v 2.5.2.6

EVAL-AD5941BATZ plugged into a ADICUP3029.

Managed to load firmware into the ADICUP3029

I can remove the default measurement technique, add in any other EXCEPT battery impedance, and it's happy. Drag in the Battery Impedance technique, app crashes.

I've run with admin rights, no change

restarted system, no change. 

reinstalled sensorpal, no change

run MS's .net repair application no change

Windows event viewer captures the following two errors:

Hi Mark,

I have been experiencing the exact same error during the last weeks. Only the Battery Impedance was not working. Sometimes, after the software was open for some minutes, I would try to active the Battery Impedance Method and it would work.

I have made the decision to stop using the SensorPal and started to use the IAR Workbench with the development files from GItHub and it has been working perfectly since them.

Hope you find the solution soon.

Cheers!

Thanks pmarq,

I'm currently downloading IAR workbench as I type this, and will load development files and use this method too. Was all excited when I unpacked my eval kit that arrived today, lined up a bunch of cells to test, and had no joy.

Need to wrap my head around low level control if I'm going to incorporate the AD5941 into my battery management system design anyway. I was trying to have fun before the hard work begins. 

Regards,

Mark
