Motor Settings – Max Speed
All stepper motors have limits of the max speed they can achieve. If you set "max speed" faster than your motor can support, it
will probably jump / loose steps and make weird noises as it cannot keep up with the controller's designated steps.
How to connect max speed:
•
Connect to the controller
•
Go to settings and check "Motor Settings"
•
Set steppers motor "Max Speed" and click "Set". Setting will be stored to controller's memory (EEPROM)
•
Power cycle controller to verify new setting and apply max step speed.
WE STRONGLY SUGGEST TO LEAVE THE MAX SPEED TO DEFAULT SETTINGS
