Set Tracking Speed

Description

The Set Tracking Speed register is used in Servo Track closed loop mode to establish how quickly the motor should keep up to the nominal position when it has opportunity to do so. If the tracking speed is set to a high value the motor will snap to position. If the tracking speed is low the motor will close in on the nominal position. The tracking closure is performed at the tracking speed without accel or decel. It is an option to set the tracking speed to zero so that the motor does not try to close in on the nominal position. This creates a slip clutch style behavior that may be useful in some applications. After sustaining rotor displacement at zero tracking speed the tracking speed can be raised and the motor will then close in to the nominal position.

Escapes

Writing to the Set Tracking Speed register does not produce any escapes. Out of range values are saturated.
