Description

mpiMotorDemandModeTorqueOutput reads the motor’s torque output from the controller and writes it into the value pointed to by output.  mpiMotorDemandModeTorqueOutput is valid for a motor configured for the TORQUE demand mode.

SynqNet drives will support TORQUE and possibly VELOCITY mode, depending on the drive.  SynqNet RMBs do not support TORQUE or VELOCITY demand mode.
