    Tip:
    When using a motor catalog number as the data source, default values, for example, gains and dynamics, are automatically set based on the
    Application Type and Loop Response
    settings from the
    General
    tab. Using default values minimizes the need for adjusting these parameters using autotune, manual tune, and the manual setting of these parameters.
