Issue
How does one read the actual torque in the Lexium drive via an analog signal output?

Resolution
You may configure the Lexium analog output to output the actual current (ANOUTx = 2; 10 V = IPEAK).
Read the output analog voltage value from the output pin and multiply the read value by the motor's torque constant value to calculate the actual torque.
t = i * Kt
Where :
t = torque
i = actual current
Kt = torque constant of the motor
Also note: the Lexium analog output has a resolution of 10 bits
