Module 9158 Maximum torque
With Module 9158 you can limit the torque of an axis or spindle. The maximum 
torque resulting from the data in the control's motor table cannot be 
exceeded. In this case the torque is limited to the value from the motor 
specifications. After the drive is switched off, the original torque becomes 
effective again.
If torque limiting is active, the standstill monitoring is inactive; only the motion 
monitoring remains active.
If a torque is specified via PLC Modules 9128/9158 and MP2223 bit 1 is set, 
the NC automatically considers the holding current in MP2630 when limiting 
the current. This makes it possible to use the PLC modules to set a limit value 
that is below the holding torque.
The torque-producing current required for the desired torque must be 
transferred to the module:

If Module 9158 is used, then certain monitoring functions regarding the 
drives must be switched off. Please note the following error messages and 
their possible consequences (see DSP error messages)
 C380 Motor <axis> not controllable
 C3B0 Motor <axis> does not rotate
