BD
FUNCTION: Brushless Degrees
DESCRIPTION:
This command sets the commutation phase of a sinusoidally commutated motor. When using hall
effect sensors, a more accurate value for this parameter can be set by using the command, BC.
This command should not be used except when the user is creating a specialized phase
initialization procedure.
ARGUMENTS: BD n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n or BDA=n where
n is an integer between 0 - 360°.
n = ? Returns the current brushless motor angle (between 0-360°)
