Re: Using Digital Output to control Brake/Coast on Victor

Also, please remember that all energy has to go somewhere. When the victors ground both sides of the motor, and all that electricity can't go anywhere fast, the CIM will generate a little heat and a TON of electro magnetic field.

Beware: at a high speed, this EM field can be more than intense enough to disrupt analog signals and sometimes even digital signals.

Can't wait to see all the autonomouses this year (especially ours... )
