Current Limit Control
In some applications, if the motor is misapplied at full power, the attached mechanism could
be damaged. Therefore, it can be useful to reduce the maximum amount of current available,
which limits the torque the motor can produce.
AMPS=formula
Set Current Limit, 0 to 1023
The AMPS (PWMlimit) command is used to set the current limit. Use the AMPS command with
a number, variable or formula within the range of 0 to 1023, where the value 1023
corresponds to the maximum commanded torque to the motor. Current is controlled by
limiting the maximum PWM duty cycle, which will reduce the maximum speed of the motor as
well.
NOTE: The AMPS command has no effect in Torque mode.
