Protection Systems Settings
the following settings are related to protection system limits and behaviours once triggered on the micro drive lpi units bus current limit description limits the maximum current limit allowed on the bus the unit will cap the maximum power output at the limit setpoint id 0x004d dronecan name bus cur lim units units are in amps (a) advanced no ignore zero throttle after watchdog event description

after boot id 0x0168 dronecan name wwdg zer tht units n/a advanced yes max regeneration current description the maximum level of regenerative current (when afw is enabled) on the bus before the unit limits a higher value will result in a quicker response on throttle down regenerative current is negatively signed id 0x003f dronecan name regen bus cur units units are in amps (a) advanced no motor over temperature duty limit description the lowest duty cycle percentage that the motor overtemperature response can reduce the output duty cycle to setting this to a high value may cause the motor to exceed its temperature limit id 0x0193 dronecan name mot t dty lim units units are in % duty cycle (%) advanced yes motor temperature limit description the maximum temperature to allow the connected sensor within the motor to reach once the temperature is reached, the motor temperature response behaviour is triggered id 0x0055 dronecan name mot ovt lim units units are in degrees celsius (°c)

response setting defines the behaviour note that the controller has a separate hard temperature limit at 135c at which point the controller will shutdown id 0x0045 dronecan name temp lim units units

the maximum duty cycle is limited to over temperature duty limit id 0x001b dronecan name ovt ramp temp units units are in degrees celsius (°c) advanced no over temperature response description the response to apply to limit maximum output duty cycle when the temperature limit is reached on the controller "power step" sets the maximum duty to "over temperature duty limit" "power ramp" linearly ramps the maximum duty cycle from 100 at "temperature limit" to "over temperature duty limit" at "over temperature ramp end temperature" "none" does not apply any limits to maximum output duty cycle note that the controller has a separate hard temperature limit at 135c at which point the controller will shutdown id 0x0047 dronecan name ovt resp units n/a advanced no value mappings 0 > power step

the actual temperature of the ptc sensor when this value is set to non zero, the ptc temperature calibration runs and calculates the offset resistance, and this value is set back to zero id 0x007d

once a valid signal is returned and the throttle is 0% if the arm message timeout period is less than this setting, the arm timeout period will take precedence id 0x0037 dronecan name rx timeout units
