Information to be Displayed During Motor Movements

By default, the 7-segment display displays the operating state during motor movements.

You can select the type of information to be displayed during motor movements via the menu item (MON) / (supv):

  • (stat) displays the operating state (default)

  • (vact) displays the actual velocity of the motor

  • (iact) displays the actual torque of the motor

The modified value of the parameter is only taken into account at motor standstill.
