Abstract
A motor drive controller including a monitoring unit monitoring whether or not a use state of a motor to be controlled satisfies a predetermined condition, and an output information switching unit switching information to be outputted to the outside from an information output path from motor driving information indicating a drive state of the motor to monitoring information indicating the use state if the use state satisfies the predetermined condition.
Claims13
A motor drive controller comprising:
- a monitoring unit monitoring whether or not a use state of a motor to be controlled satisfies a predetermined condition, the use state of the motor representing cumulative information indicating an extent to which the motor has been used;
- and
- an output information switching unit switching information to be outputted to an outside of the motor drive controller from an information output path from motor driving information indicating a drive state of the motor to monitoring information indicating the use state if the use state satisfies the predetermined condition.
A motor drive control method of controlling a motor, the method comprising:
- a step of monitoring whether or not a use state of a motor to be controlled satisfies a predetermined condition, the use state of the motor representing cumulative information indicating an extent to which the motor has been used;
- and
- a step of switching information to be outputted to an outside of a motor drive controller from an information output path from motor driving information indicating a drive state of the motor to monitoring information indicating the use state if the use state satisfies the predetermined condition.
