Hi, A specific question on the Powerflex 70 drive.
Parameter 148 is the "current limit value"
If this value is set to say 10 amps then the drive will limit to 10 amps when lifting a load.
My question is what happens when the load is being lowered and the load is actually driving through the gear box accelerating the motor. Does the drive limit itself to 10 amps to try and keep the motor at the required speed or does the drive output the maximum current that it can supply (ie 20 amps) to regulate the speed.
Regards Alan Case
