Jaguar stops powering the motor after a few seconds

[Mark McLeod]

The Jaguar is protecting itself from the over-current.
A CIM is pretty robust and will handle it much better. It pulls 133 amps at stall.

One way around the problem is to ramp the Jag in software.
Not always successful because the Jag gets increasingly sensitive to over-current the warmer it gets, so the ramp may have to get gentler over time.

A better way is to regear the CIM gear/sprocket train, but that's not always practical.

A third way is to switch to a Victor in this particular application, because it's a bit more forgiving, but the Victor won't protect itself, so there's a chance of burning it out.
