TK 
FUNCTION:  Peak Torque Limit 
DESCRIPTION: 
The TK command sets the peak torque limit on the motor command output and TL sets the 
continuous torque limit.  When the average torque is below TL, the motor command signal 
can go up to the TK (Peak Torque) for a short amount of time.  If TK is set lower than TL, 
then TL is the maximum command output under all circumstances. 
ARGUMENTS: 
n is an unsigned number in the range of 0 to 9.99 volts 
n=0 disables the peak torque limit 
n=? returns the value of the peak torque limit for the specified axis.
