One way around the problem is to ramp the Jab 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.

When you say "ramp the Jab in software", do you mean to start at 0% and gradually raise the value?
