Set Rotor Locked Timeout

Motion Block

Description

Set Rotor Locked Timeout, used in tracking mode, determines the timeout before a Rotor Locked condition occurs as reported by Rotor Locked. By using the Set Rotor Locked Timeout a yes/no query can be made of Rotor Locked rather than having to read Rotor Lead Lag Time and performing a numerical comparison. The units are seconds. Rotor Locked can also be used as an event to produce a controller-resident response to a locked rotor condition. The timeout value is in seconds.

Escapes

If the parameter to Set Rotor Locked Timeout is greater than 32 seconds a Parameter Out Of Range Escape Code will occur.

Examples
