A method of controlling a motor control apparatus includes selecting one of a first option and a first additional option in a first setting item in response to a first user input via a setting sequence prior to a control-mode-finding sub-process of the setting sequence, the first setting item relating to a motor and including the first option and the first additional option, the first option being different from the first additional option. A first control mode is selected in the control-mode-finding sub-process via the setting sequence based on the first option selected in the first setting item prior to the control-mode-finding sub-process. A second control mode is selected in the control-mode-finding sub-process via the setting sequence based on the first additional option selected in the first setting item prior to the control-mode-finding sub-process. The first control mode is different from the first option and the first additional option.
