If this is configured incorrectly, will it trigger overcurrent protection?

Hello @pelino,

Overcurrent protection safeguards the board. If an overcurrent error occurs, refer to the Error description and management documentation available through the Workbench tool: About > Documentations > Documentation > User manual tab, "(FOC) Firmware errors" link.

I am using a dual-motor configuration. Is there a method to identify which motor triggered the overcurrent error?

Hello @pelino,

To identify which motor triggered the overcurrent error, load MC_FOC_SDK_2_Motors.qml GUI on Motor Pilot Tool.

For M2 Over Current detection, the feature is provided by STDRIVE101 chip as mentioned on WorkBench interface:
