Amplifier Fault Signal (FAULT-)
This input can take a signal from the amplifier so PMAC knows when the amplifier is having problems,
and can shut down action.
The polarity is programmable with
Motor[x].AmpFaultLevel
(
Motor[1].AmpFaultLevel
for motor 1) and the
return signal is ground (GND). FAULT1- is pin 35. With the default setup, this signal must actively be
pulled low for a fault condition. In this setup, if nothing is wired into this input, PMAC will consider the
motor not to be in a fault condition.
