15. Run the Field Weakening test.
Run the Field Weakening Drive test.
Note: e present Field Weakening Drive value (0%) was determined by
the auto-characterization procedure, and is not the default value (50%).

Field Weakening Drive
Increasing the parameter toward 100% will progressively allow more torque
(along with more current) at high motor speeds, but increasing it too much
will actually reduce performance while still driving a great deal of current.
While the most ecient operation will occur with eld weakening at the
0% auto-characterization value, more torque at high speeds may be required,
necessitating more eld weakening.
On the 1313 programmer, add these two items to the Favorites shortcut

Field Weakening Drive.
Set Max Speed to a very high speed that likely cannot be achieved by
the hydraulic system.
Set Field Weakening Drive = 100%.
Apply full throttle, and again work with just the rst stage if you have
a multistage mast. On each run, continue to lower the Field Weakening
Drive value and note the maximum speed (Monitor Controller Motor
Tuning Motor RPM) the motor is able to achieve. Repeat and continue
lowering the Field Weakening Drive value until you notice the achievable
maximum motor speed fall o signicantly (20–30 rpm). is setting is
the Field Weakening Drive value you should set to achieve the maximum
torque / speed envelope of the motor. You can always reduce the Field
Weakening Drive value to improve energy consumption and eciency (but
reducing torque output) at high speeds.
Note: e Field Weakening Drive setting will have no eect at motor
speeds below FW Base Speed.
