CYCLE}.

Internal DLCM Synchronous motor has
achieved its duty cycle limit of 50% ON
time (based on a 20 minute interval).
Rapidly cycling batches and wildly
swinging analog inputs will cause this
motor to run continuously.

Eliminate batches that are cycling too rapidly
(e.g., changing stroke from 0 to 100% one
minute and 100 to 0% the next - the internal
drive motor runs all the time). Condition
