Motor current limit settings. The accel and deccel settings apply to RC, Analog and commands
with no Accel and Deccel arugements.
Function Description
M1 Max Current Sets maximum motor current for channel 1. Can not exceed RoboClaw rated
peak current.
M2 Max Current Sets maximum motor current for channel 2. Can not exceed RoboClaw rated
peak current.
M1 Default Accel Sets the ramp rate of acceleration for motor channel 1. A value of 1 to 655,360
can be used. Value of 0 sets the internal default for Accel and Deccel. Value of
655,360 equals 100mS full forward to reverse ramping rate.
M1 Default Deccel Sets the ramp rate of decceleration for motor channel 1. A value of 1 to 655,360
can be used. Value of 0 sets the internal default for Accel and Deccel. Value of
655,360 equals 100mS full forward to reverse ramping rate.
M2 Default Accel Sets the ramp rate of acceleration for motor channel 2. A value of 1 to 655,360
can be used. Value of 0 sets the internal default for Accel and Deccel. Value of
655,360 equals 100mS full forward to reverse ramping rate.
M2 Default Deccel Sets the ramp rate of decceleration for motor channel 2. A value of 1 to 655,360
can be used. Value of 0 sets the internal default for Accel and Deccel. Value of
655,360 equals 100mS full forward to reverse ramping rate.
(6) I/O
Set encoder input type. Set S3, S4 and S5 conî‚¿guration options. Enabling output pins on certain
models of RoboClaw. Set limit, homing, voltage clamp, E-stop options.
Function Description
Encoder 1 Mode Sets encoder type for encoder 1.
Encoder 2 Mode Sets encoder type for encoder 2.
S3 Mode Sets the default function for S3.
S4 Mode Sets the default function for S4.
S5 Mode Sets the default function for S5.
CTRL1 Mode Enables output pins on certain models of RoboClaw. A value of 0 to 65535
can be used to set the pin's default PWM output. Value can be changed by
commands during run time.
CTRL2 Mode Enables output pins on certain models of RoboClaw. A value of 0 to 65535
can be used to set the pin's default PWM output. Value can be changed by
commands during run time.
