/ctl_mode
| Value | Mode | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VLT | Voltage mode |
| 2 | CUR | Current (torque) mode |
| 3 | VLTFW | Voltage with freewheel mode |
info
Additional driver command modes beyond those listed above may be available. Refer to the driver command mode reference for the full list.
