  • Data transfer between motors
    Patent number: 8504646
    Abstract: A method for transferring existing data from a source motor to a target motor includes retrieving the existing data from the source motor, optionally converting the existing data into a new format, and at least one of storing, erasing, writing, overwriting, or replacing software and/or data on the target motor such that the existing data is stored on the target motor in a format compatible with the target motor.
    Type: Grant

  • Optimization of motor operation using a test cycle
    Patent number: 8288976
    Abstract: An electronic control system for a motor uses a test cycle to select an optimum mode of operation from a plurality of available modes of operation. In some embodiments, the test cycle produces test data that is compared to information in a library of operating parameters relating to the available modes of operation. An algorithm uses the information in the library of operating parameters to choose an optimum mode of operation. In certain embodiments, the test cycle tries each of the available modes of operation, monitors operational parameters, and determines the best performing mode of operation.
