sets the number of motor poles. This variable is used for commutation control and represents the number of individual magnetic poles of the motor (not pole pairs). When this variable is changed, the drive will enter a no-comp state, requiring a CONFIG command (see CONFIG). When MOTORTYPE=2 (linear motor), this variable will be forced to a value of 2.
