A first determination that a range of motion of a user of an exercise machine is between pre-determined motion thresholds is made. While the range of motion of the user is between the pre-determined motion thresholds, a velocity of the cable being below a pre-determined velocity threshold is determined. In response to determining that the velocity of the cable being below the pre-determined velocity threshold while the range of motion of the user is between the pre-determined motion thresholds, a second determination that the user should be spotted is made, Torque of a motor is reduced based at least in part on the second determination that the user should be spotted.

A method of synchronizing a cross-compound generator system on one or more turning gears during startup includes determining, via a notch monitor controller, first and second angular velocities, respectively, of a first and a second rotor. The method also includes simultaneously exciting, via the notch monitor controller, the first and second rotors to attain electromechanical coupling therebetween. The method further includes determining, via the notch monitor controller, a value of a time at which a calibration value of an offset is a constant value, where the offset is representative of a phase alignment of the first rotor relative to the second rotor, and where the offset is indicative of a successful electromechanical coupling therebetween. The method also includes disengaging the one or more turning gears from the cross-compound generator system.

A motion control system provides optimized communications within and between an amplifier and a profile generation subsystem. In particular, the communications can provide data streams between components of the motion control that are derived from observed variables of the motion system. An amplifier subsystem drives a motor and output motor data indicating status of the motor. The profile generation subsystem issues motor control commands to the amplifier subsystem and generates motor summary data based on the motor data. The profile generation subsystem selectively output an error signal based on at least one of the motor data and motor summary data.

A machine tool is provided capable of detecting an abnormality caused by detaching a spindle. The machine tool includes: the spindle configured to rotate a workpiece or a tool; a sensor configured to output a signal according to a rotation angle of the spindle; and a controller configured to detect occurrence of an abnormality in at least one of the spindle and the sensor when an electrical signal different from the signal output during each of rotation of the spindle and halt of the spindle is output from the sensor.

A motor has a rotor that rotates in response to one or more alternating current input signals. A position sensor is adapted to generate a substantially saw-tooth waveform indicative of a position of the rotor. A primary processing module or data processor is capable of providing position data and speed data for the rotor based on the substantially saw-tooth waveform. A notch filter can reject one or more selected frequency components in the substantially saw-tooth waveform to reduce distortion off the substantially saw-tooth waveform that would otherwise tend to cause inaccuracy in the provided position data and speed data.
