Oh, I also thought that it's per motor value.

What error does it indicate? Please remind me.

But there are encoder scale (200 per mm), pwmgen scale is 10, and bldc
scale is 14400 (i'm not sure where it goes from).
Max output is 10.

Anyways, when PID gets saturated it indicates that the motor has not enough
power or velocity to follow the trajectory.
