   • Adaptive tuning compensates for motor aging, load variations, and voltage fluctuations.
   • Reduces harmonic distortion to <2% (THD) with integrated active front-end (AFE) rectifiers.
2. Cybersecurity:
   • TLS 1.3 Encryption: Protects communication channels from cyber threats.
   • Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Restricts unauthorized parameter changes.
3. Modular I/O Expansion:
   • Up to 8 expansion modules for digital/analog I/O, relay outputs, and encoder feedback.
   • Hot-swap capability minimizes downtime during upgrades.
4. Safety Integration:
   • Safe Speed Range (SSR): Limits motor speed within predefined bounds.
   • Safety Brake Control (SBC): Manages external brakes during emergencies.
