3.6 Parameters: 4-** Limits/Warnings
3.6.1 4-1* Motor Limits
Define torque, current and speed limits for the motor, and
the reaction of the frequency converter when the limits are
exceeded.
A limit may generate a message on the display. A warning
will always generate a message on the display or on the
fieldbus. A monitoring function may initiate a warning or a
trip, upon which the frequency converter will stop and
generate an alarm message.
