Higher supply voltage can increase motor torque at higher speeds (>300 RPM), thus helpful for avoiding losing
steps.However, higher voltage may cause bigger motor vibration at lower speed, and it may also cause over-
voltage protection or even drive damage.

5.1 S1 - Rotating Switch Configurations
This rotating switch is used to set the peak current of the drive and motion gain, from the motor phase
current andapplication requirements.

1) Velocity loop Ki Indicates the stop
time and position accuracy, “0”
indicates the stop time is long, but the
position error issmaller.“16” means
the stop time is short,but the position
error is slightly larger.
2) Position loop Kp and velocity loop Kp
is a pair of composite parameters that
representrigidity. “25” and “25”composite
parametersindicate the rigidity is weak,
“100” and “5”composite parameters
indicate the rigidity is strong. Sometimes
if the motor
will rotate after stopping, it can increase
thevalue of position loop Kp, but if the
value is too large, the motor will have
noise.
