4 Axis Parameters
The following sections describe all axis parameters that can be used with the SAP, GAP, AAP, STAP and
RSAP commands.

Description
R
GAP
Parameter readable
W
SAP, AAP
Parameter writable
E
STAP, RSAP
Parameter automatically restored from EEPROM after reset or power-on. These
parameters can be stored permanently in EEPROM using STAP command and
also explicitly restored (copied back from EEPROM into RAM) using RSAP.
Basic parameters should be adjusted to motor / application for proper module operation.
Parameters for the more experienced user please do not change unless you are absolutely
sure.

The current position of the motor. Should
only be overwritten for reference point
setting.

Target (next)
speed
The desired speed in velocity mode (see ramp
mode, no. 138). In position mode, this
parameter is set by hardware: to the
maximum speed during acceleration, and to
zero during deceleration and rest.

Should not exceed the physically highest
possible value. Adjust the pulse divisor (axis
parameter 154), if the speed value is very low
(<50) or above the upper limit.

Maximum
acceleration
The limit for acceleration (and deceleration).
Changing this parameter requires re-
calculation of the acceleration factor (no. 146)
and the acceleration divisor (no. 137), which is
done automatically. See TMC 429 datasheet for
calculation of physical units.
