Current Limit Reduction Setting? | | On the drivers there is a 4 pole DIP switch.
Switches 2,3 and 4 set the microstepping.
Switch 1 OFF 50% gives current reduction after an axis is stopped for 0.3 seconds.
As I see it, and have experienced, the switch is ON disabling the current reduction made as delivered, as the last thing done at the factory is to set the current limit for an axis. The switch should be OFF for current reduction.
This made my steppers nice and cool, and it leaves a much larger safety margin for the power supply.
The same applies to X4+ CNC. It had S1 ON also. OFF is cooler.
