PID Integral Constant

Works the same as the Gain.

Feeder Speed Limits

This allows you to set the minimum and maximum speed for the motor drives as a percentage. The drives are not supposed to be run at less than 8 hertz and should not be run above 115 hertz.

Extruder RPM Options

This gives you the option of having no extruder speed input, writing the extruder speed to the blender through the Ethernet, or using a proximity sensor on the end of the extruder screw.
