Configuring Idle Mode Current Reduction Parameters

Use this option to set the Idle Mode current-reduction parameters (TIMEOUT and %RED).

TIMEOUT sets the Idle Mode current reduction period in seconds. When the TIMEOUT period has elapsed, the commanded motor current will be reduced by the percentage defined in EDIT > SETUP

>ADVNCE > I-IDLE > %RED. Full current is restored on the next commanded step. The valid range for the timeout is 0 to 3600 seconds. Setting the timeout to 0 disables the Idle Mode feature and the display will read “Off”.

%RED (percentage of reduction) sets the percentage of current reduction that occurs after the Idle Mode TIMEOUT has expired. The valid range for percentage of reduction is 0 to100%. The Idle Mode reduction percentage takes precedence over the Stop Mode 25% reduction if both modes have been enabled.
