DESCRIPTION 

This command is used to set the motor type the for axis 

xx

.  Defining motor type 

is necessary because the ESP needs to apply different control algorithms for different 
motor types.  

 

 

 

 

Note: 

 

It will not be possible to control an axis if its motor type is undefined.
