Prop Parking Settings

the following settings are related to the prop parking functions on the micro drive lp units active hold strength description the duty cycle percentage to apply to the motor during the 'active hold' stopping behaviour a higher duty cycle will provide a stronger braking force but increase power consumption and temperature id 0x01a1 dronecan name actv hld str units units are in percentage of duty cycle (% duty cycle) advanced yes enable propeller parking description enable the propeller parking function parking will engage whenever esc was running, and zero throttle is commanded id 0x0064 dronecan name park en units n/a advanced yes motor pole pairs description number of motor pole pairs of the connected motor, utilised for scaling erpm to rpm id 0x0021 dronecan name mot pole pairs units n/a advanced no propeller parking angle offset description final mechanical offset angle from the prop parking sensor position allows fine tuning of final parking location units are in degrees (mechanical) id 0x0067 dronecan name park offset ang units units are in degrees (°) advanced yes propeller parking hall input description hall effect input to use for propeller parking id 0x0069 dronecan name park hall in units n/a advanced yes value mappings 0 > hall a 1 > hall b 2 > hall c propeller parking on armed description perform the propeller parking routine when the unit arms this will perform propeller parking on startup once a valid signal is obtained and arming conditions are met id 0x01a0 dronecan name park on armed units n/a advanced yes propeller parking speed description the speed at which to turn the load while performing parking id 0x0065 dronecan name park speed units units are in mechanical rpm (rpm) advanced yes propeller parking timeout description timeout (in number of rotations) once the propeller parking event begins in the event a sensor isn’t located zero corresponds to no timeout id 0x006a dronecan name park timeout units units are in number of rotations (n rotations) advanced yes propeller parking transition direction description signal edge from hall sensor to trigger parking signal depending on hall configuration this is either rising or falling id 0x0068 dronecan name park trans dir units n/a advanced yes value mappings 0 > rising edge 1 > falling edge propeller parking turning strength description the amount of power to apply to the bridge when turning during parking id 0x0066 dronecan name park turn str units units are in percentage of duty cycle (% duty cycle) advanced yes stopping behaviour description selects the behaviour of the bridge when motor drive stops after a 0% throttle signal is given when set to 'freewheeling' the bridge will be set to a floating state where all phases are disconnected 'passive hold' will short the motor phases which will provide a braking force, this can prevent the windmilling of propellers and consumes no power 'active hold' will apply the configured active hold duty cycle to the motor to provide a braking force, this is generally stronger than the passive braking force but consumes power and generates heat in the motor id 0x019b dronecan name stop behav units n/a advanced no value mappings 0 > freewheeling 1 > passive hold 2 > active hold
