	Instead of steps, brushless DC motors work in ''commutations''. The number of commutations per rotation is equal to the number of poles multiplied by the number of phases. So, if you have an 8-Pole, 3-Phase motor, the motor will have 24 commutations per rotation. For this motor, to change the target position units from communications to rotations, you would set the rescale factor to 1/24, or 0.0416.

	{{~~UGcontrolpanel~~\|DCC1100}}		== Part 2: Using Your Phidget ==

			===About===
			The DCC1100 lets you control one brushless DC motor with hall-effect feedback. With this Phidget, you can set the velocity (forward or reverse) and acceleration of your motor, or set a specific target position using the position controller built into the Phidgets software libraries. You can also monitor the controller temperature for cooling management and safety.

			The DCC1100 requires an 8-30V DC power supply.

			[[Image:DCC1100_About.jpg\|link=\|center]]

			===Explore Your Phidget Channels Using The Control Panel===

			You can use your Control Panel to explore your Phidget's channels.

			'''1.''' Open your Control Panel, and you will find the following channels:

			[[Image:DCC1100_Panel.jpg\|link=\|center]]

			'''2.''' Double click on a channel to open an example program. Each channel belongs to a different channel class:
