Infeed DC Bus Maximum Capacitance

An Infeed Module is limited by the "inrush current" that charges the DC Bus when the Mains Supply is turned on. The limiting factor is usually a combination of the Mains Supply Voltage and the total capacitance on the DC Bus.

In the [InfeedModules] and [Drives] database tables, there are two fields - [Cmax] & [CmaxFrml]. [Cmax] is a value that now exists for backwards compatibility. [CmaxFrml], added in v4.6, uses a formula to allow for more accurate calculation based on the Mains Supply voltage. When [CmaxFrml] is provided and returns a value > 0 then this value is used. Otherwise, the [Cmax] value is used.
