Kit for sensorless control of brushless
DC motors
The Agile Development Kit is ideal for motor OEMs and application specialists working with sensorless motors, providing full application software for current (torque) or velocity (RPM) mode operations
Suitable for motor voltages from 10 to 190 VDC with peak current ratings up to 45A, the Development Kit includes a full set of cables and the Agile DPWin setup, tuning and diagnostic software on a CD With DPWin over 25 parameters can be optimally set (including PID loop settings) or the user can rely on built in algorithms to set them based on the motor parameters and the user performance requirements

Sensorless motor drive technology is patented
Agile Systems, a world leader in the design, development and manufacturing of advanced motion control technology, has been granted patents for the sensor-less control of electric motor products
The motor controller is mounted in a heat sink enclosure and fully potted for rigidity and environmental protection.
The user connects the controller to their PC using the optically isolated RS232 full duplex connection, inserts the DPWin CD and immediately begins working with the industry's most advanced sensorless controller.
Agile DPWin software includes parameter setting, auto-calculating control algorithms, datalogging and current stimulus, loop compensators and oscilloscope windows.
Using the Agile proprietary control algorithms the development kit is ideal for sensorless applications where consistent, reliable starting is required, for both low and high speed motors, applications with high starting torque and for motors with low inductance (including slotless designs).
Agile Systems is a world leader in the design, development and manufacture of advanced motion control technology including motor control and power conversion.
With expertise in integrating power electronics, digital control and network communications in small, cost effective packages, Agile has established customers in a broad range of industries including robotics, automation equipment, automotive, industrial machinery and alternative energy.
