Unlike analog MicroFlex drives, the MicroFlex e100 has a position loop onboard the drive. Since we will be testing basic positioning
moves in this application you should select “Position” for the control mode. The reference source should be selected to EPL as the
drive will be receiving its position reference from the NextMove e100 over EPL.

The Application Peak Current cannot be higher than either the motor peak current or the drive peak current. If the setting is too low
the drive will not run to speed as it won’t be able to provide enough torque.
The motor overload response can also be set here. By default the drive will trip on an over-current condition. Sometimes it may be
desirable to limit the torque by folding back the current.
