if the reference voltage for the Mentor MP electric drive is bipolar, will the direction of rotation of the electric motor change?

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
February 10, 2025

Yes, if the reference voltage is bipolar and the bipolar reference mode is enabled (Pr 1.10 set to 1), the direction of rotation of the Mentor MP drive can change based on the polarity of the reference signal. A positive reference voltage will result in forward rotation, while a negative reference voltage will cause reverse rotation.
