Hi @DevendraKumar ,

The details are required for the motor configuration to be complete in case of closed loop control of PMSM/BLDC motors.

For controlling Induction motor the essential parameters are PWM frequency, Number of motor poles and motor max RPM.This document explains about induction motor control Induction motor control by iMOTION™ .

Hi @DevendraKumar 

 

Yes it is possible, based on the direction input.

Section 2.2.1 provides more details on Reference generator block.

Please go through Section 2.1.8 in iMOTION™ Motion Control Engine 

for further details on using control input.

Hi @DevendraKumar 

There is no protection for phase reversal.

It has to be detected based on the application.

Hi @DevendraKumar 

 

Based on the direction of rotation we should observe if either current or speed is higher or lower in one direction when compared to other and implement the solution as desired.
