Current Limiting
The maximum phase current of the
SimplIQ
drive is given by the parameter MC, which
describes the hardware of the power stage and cannot be modified. The peak current
limit for a given application is programmed to the parameter PL[1] amperes (see
section
in this manual).
You should program PL[1] to be smaller than MC if you do not wish to utilize the full
power of the drive; this may be the case if the drive is oversized with respect to your
application or because the line voltage is not enough to drive MC amperes into the
motor.
