Interesting.So the controller, which has 4 settings (coast and three increasing applications of power), was effectively rendered somewhat unresponsive to the engineer's command? The controller could be set to coast, but the current that was supposed to be registering whatever it was suppposed to - since I know little about such things, let's represent it by 0.25 A for coast and increasing currents above that in 0.25 A increments for each notch of power up to the full amp for full power - would instead register as a higher current, which indicated that more power was to be applied? |
