CommutationSearchCurrent Parameter

Default Value: 1.0

Minimum Value: 0.0

Maximum Value: 150.0

Units: amperes

Type: float

IMPORTANT: This parameter applies only when you use the Commutation Search method to initialize the motor commutation for AC brushless motors that do not have Hall-effect switches.

The CommutationSearchCurrent parameter specifies the level of current that the drive uses during the Commutation Search method to initialize the motor commutation. Refer to Commutation Search for more information.

The value of this parameter must be sufficiently high to overcome any friction or loading on the axis so that the motor can move freely during the initialization process.
