How do I set the peak and continuous current limits on the amplifier?
a. If available, position the Current Scaling switch to the proper position 100% for full current capabilities of the amplifier, 50% to reduce the maximum current output by half. b. If available, position the Continuous Current Reduction switch to the proper position Continuous/Peak current ratio of 50% or 25%. c. Set the position of Pot 2 (Current Limit) from the full counter-clockwise position based on the following: Turns = (Isyst/Imax*12)+1 Where: Isyst=Maximum current requirements of the system Imax =Maximum current capabilities of the amplifier (based on amplifier ratings and positions of Current Scaling and Continuous Current Reduction switches) Note: If peak and continuous current ratings of the motor are not a 50% ratio, (or 25% as set by Continuous Current Reduction switch,) set the current limits according to the more limiting value.
