TMS320F28234: eQEP - First Index Marker (FIMF) Only Set after Device Reset

Part Number:TMS320F28234

Hello,

This is related to the thread "eQEP - Position Counter Reset on the First Index Event not available after SW reset".  I find that the "Position Counter Reset on the first Index Event" mode of the PCCU in the eQEP module works as described, but only after a device reset.  If, after the First Index Event has be acquired and the FIMF has been set, the eQEP peripheral is reset (QEPCTL.QPEN = 0) and/or the First Index Marker Flag has been cleared (EQep1Regs.QEPSTS.bit.FIMF = 1), the device will not reacquire the First Index Event.

Has this issue been confirmed as a bug and is there a workaround other than resetting the device?

Thanks in advance.
