EPS Operation There are the following functions in assist control

Item
Basic Control Inertia Compensation Control Recovery Control

Function
Calculates the assist current from the steering torque value and the vehicle speed, and actuates the motor Improves the starting movement of the motor when the driver starts to turn the steering wheel During the short interval between the time the driver fully turns the steering wheel and the wheels try to recover, this control assists the recovery force Regulates the amount of assist when the driver turns the steering wheel while driving at high speeds, thus damping the changes in the yaw rate of the vehicle body Estimates the motor temp. based on the amperage and the current duration . If the temp. exceeds the standard, it limits the amperage to prevent the motor from overheating Controls EPS system in order to facilitate the driver to operate the steering in a direction that stabilizes the vehicle during VSC operating Limits the operation of the electric load when the battery voltage decreases
