Description:
There are two position compare registers on the ASIC, register 0 and 1. The when the position of the
axis matches the value held is a position compare register the compare pin will change state. The
compare output will be active when the axis position is greater than the value in compare register 0 and
less than the value in compare register 1.

Description:
The
CURRENTLIMIT keyword restricts the output voltage of the DAC output. This can be used to
protect motors and drives from excessive current or demand speeds. A value is a percentage of the
maximum DAC output (±10V).
Example:
CURRENTLIMIT[0,1,2] = 50,50,60
will set the current limit of axes 0 and 1 to 50% and axis 2 to 60%.
Using
CURRENTLIMIT with velocity amplifiers will restrict the maximum velocity.
Restrictions:
CURRENTLIMIT is only applicable to axes configured as Servo axes.
