The way the 8i20 works is that it is sent a signed 16-bit number, and 32768 = the max current that the drive is set to. This 16-bit number is calculated using scalemax. So if you want to set scalemax to 1, that is entirely reasonable. Then a PID output of 1 would give you nvmaxcurrent amps. The maxlim and minlim values are provided to limit the value. Bear in mind that the 8i20 uses the same driver as every other smart-serial device, and they all have exactly the same pins. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
