Exception Handling
During operation, different exceptional states or errors can arise to which the circuit
must correspondingly react. These are described below:
•
Supply voltage below 9 V
Travel operation is suspended for the duration of the undervoltage. The output current
will be set to zero. When the supply voltage rises above 10.5 V, travel operation
restarts.
•
Supply voltage above 20 V
Travel operation is suspended for the duration of the undervoltage. The output current
will be set to zero. When the supply voltage falls below 20 V, travel operation restarts.
•
Overtemperature warning
The maximum stepping speed is reduced to 300 Hz. This ensures a safe shut-off proce-
dure if the temperature increases to shut-off temperature.
