Motor Channel Parameters
User Selected Current Limit Settings
The controller has current sensors at each of its output stages. Every 1 ms, this current
is measured and a correction to the output power level is applied if higher than the user
preset value.
The current limit may be set using the supplied PC utility. The maximum limit is dependent
on the controller model and can be found on the product datasheet.
