Stepping through an Electrical Cycle
It is important to know what commands to use in order to force the motor into different locations of the
electrical cycle.
Two different cases will determine the command set that will be used based on the commutation phase
angle. Below is a list of both command sets in increments of 30 degrees electrical from 0-360 degrees.
The following is meant as a reference for understanding and there is no need to perform this test to setup
the Hall Effects with PMAC.
