Deceleration
This parameter is the rate at which the motor decelerates from the target speed to stop at the
target position. Typically, the motor can decelerate faster than accelerate since the load and
friction are working to help decelerate the motor.
Motor Drive Configuration
Winding Resistance
This parameter sets the resistance of the winding. It should be obtained from the motor
specification. This value is used in calculating the correct duty cycle if PWM mode is used.
PWM Frequency
If PWM mode is used, this parameter determines the PWM period.
Fixed Rise Time
If PWM mode is used, this parameter sets the amount of time at the beginning of a step that the
winding is left with full voltage applied before PWM is used to control the current. By leaving the full
voltage applied to the winding, the current rises as fast as possible, allowing it to reach the drive
current faster.
Caution – If making adjustments to this value, do not exceed the motor’s rated current. Use lab
equipment to measure the current in the winding when making adjustments to this value.
