METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CONTROLLING A MOTOR

摘要

A control system for controlling a motor having a stator and a rotor coupled to the stator is provided. The control system includes a plurality of input taps and an input coupled to the plurality of input taps. The input is configured to transmit an input voltage to at least one input tap of the plurality of input taps. The control system also includes a microcontroller coupled to the input. The microcontroller is programmed to determine the at least one input tap of the plurality of input taps that is asserted by the input voltage; access from a memory a predetermined input condition; detect an invalid operating input condition of the motor based on a comparison of the predetermined input condition and the at least one input tap of the plurality of input taps that is asserted by the input; and perform a function to change an operating characteristic of the motor.
