The drive reads the motor data from the encoder. With this data the encoder automatically determines the current control paramaters to guarantee optimal control of the motor. This reduces manual entry of motor data during commissioning and helps eliminate errors. The chip also supports automatic system configuration. When troubleshooting a drive system, the chip allows users to quickly eliminate the motor as the issue and focus their diagnostic efforts elsewhere.
