| >= 42 || Energy Dump error condition. The {{#switch: {{{1}}}|bldc= BLDC Motor Phidget| dc = DC Motor Phidget| #default = Phidget}} will attempt to regulate the voltage. The {{#switch: {{{1}}}|bldc= BLDC Motor Phidget| dc = DC Motor Phidget| #default = Phidget}} will stop controlling the motor, entering a freewheel state until a full power cycle occurs.

Please note that the voltage regulation mentioned in the table above is not intended to protect against continuous over-voltage conditions and may shorten the life of your controller. To ensure your system is properly protected against these events, a [[Power Guard Guide|Power Guard]] Phidget is required.

===Over Temperature===
{{#switch: {{{1}}}
| bldc= New Phidget BLDC Motor controllers include onboard temperature sensing that provides thermal protection for your system. View the table below for more information.
