This will often appear as your Surge Current Limit. You can monitor the Active Current Limit here and the actual current through your motor via the Current Input channel. You'll see that when the Surge Current Limit is exceeded for too long, the Active Current Limit will be reduced.")

This value relates to Target Velocity.

Even though no power is supplied at 0.0 duty cycle, your motor may still be turning because of the momentum it built up. Braking can help bring the motor to a stop sooner. ====Disabled (Default)==== The controller will not attempt to slow down your motor. It will instead allow it to coast (freewheel). When...")

There are two modes to choose from: # Coast Mode (default behavior) # Forced Mode ====Coast Mode==== Coast Mode is the default behavior.

At a constant load, increasing the Target Velocity will increase the speed of your motor. Units of ''duty cycle'' are used because the controller uses a pulse-width modulated (PWM) signal to modify the average voltage across your motor. The table below show...")
