Yes, absolutely. Unfortunately this also cancels out all the torque :-) (In fact this is the way to identify the pole pairs and pole directions on an 8-wire motor, by working out what combinations make the rotor hard to turn, and which not, when the wires are shorted in various combinations.) -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
