Protection Systems Settings
the following settings are related to protection system limits and behaviours once triggered on the micro drive mp 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) ignore zero throttle after watchdog event description ignore zero

the temperature is reached, the motor temperature response behavior is triggered id 0x0055 dronecan name mot ovt lim units units are in degrees celsius (°c) motor temperature response description the

overtemperature duty limit description the maximum duty cycle limit for the overtemperature response id 0x004a dronecan name ovt ramp dty min units units are in % duty cycle (%) overtemperature limit description the limit at which overtemperature event activation occurs on the controller the overtemperature response setting defines the behavior 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 are in degrees celsius (°c) overtemperature ramp end temperature description

ovt ramp temp units units are in degrees celsius (°c) overtemperature 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 "overtemperature duty limit" "power ramp" linearly ramps the maximum duty cycle from 100 at "temperature limit" to "overtemperature duty limit" at "overtemperature 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

overvoltage limit on the bus is triggered bus voltage exceeded the limit id 0x003b dronecan name ovv lim res units n/a value mappings 0 > limit duty cycle output 1 > hard shutdown 2 > disabled

motor temperature measured by the ptc this value should be 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 dronecan name ptc ref temp units n/a signal timeout period description a timeout period where no valid signal is present results in shutting the output drive the drive will be resumed 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
