Limiting the Motor Torque (Torque Limit Function)
This function allows limitation of motor shaft torque independently for each of the four quadrants. The torque
limit can be set as a fixed value using parameters or as a variable value using an analog input. The torque limit
function can be used with Open Loop Vector and Closed Loop Vector control only.

Setting the Torque Limit Using Parameters
Using L7-01 to L7-04, four torque limits in the following directions can be set individually: Forward drive,
reverse drive, forward regenerative and reverse regenerative (see
Using a Digital Output to Signalize Operation at the Torque Limit
If a multifunction output is set to this function (H2-01 to H2-03 is set to "30"), the output is switched ON
when the motor output torque reaches one of the torque limits.
