We included a copy of TI motorware in the cloned repository (_`motorware.zip`_). Alternatively you can download motorware from Motorware or here <https://github.com/SDI-SoftwareDefinedInverter/TAPAS/blob/master/motorware.zip>.

As the TAPAS board definition is not part of the stock motorware package we have to make some modifications to it. All the necessary changes are contained in the patch-file _`SDITAPASmotorwarePatch.patch`_. Now copy _`SDITAPASmotorwarePatch.patch`_ to the motorware installation folder (usually _`C:\ti\`_) and start git in bash mode (also in the motorware installation folder). Then execute the following commands:
The zip contains a windows installer, which can also de used on linux via wine.

This completes the installation of motorware und you can start playing with the motorware-labs
