Description

This keyword sets the excitation frequency for Wake and Shake mode 2.

The default setting of 10Hz will work for almost all systems.

In cases where the load attached to the motor is much higher than the motor inertia (200:1) it may be necessary to lower the value of WS.FREQ.

Effects of lowering WS.FREQ:

Wake and Shake Mode 2 will take longer to complete.

A higher magnitude of motion will be seen on the motor because the motor has current applied in the same direction for a longer period of time.
