# Stagehand Pro 4: Monitoring Behavior

## VFD Amperage

Press the **SET** button on the [VFD keypad](/docs/stagehand/stagehand-pro-ac/stagehand-pro-4-operation.md#front-panel-overview) to cycle through:

* speed in **Hz**
* current in **Amps**
* voltage in **Volts**

{% hint style="info" %}
Using the keypad to check the current draw of the motor is a great way to verify whether the attached machine is over capacity. If the machine has a maximum current draw of 17A, and the current displayed on the VFD is 20A, you know the machine is being asked to move more than it can and you should reduce the load.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
You can graph current and speed over time using Spikemark's [Analyze Movement](/docs/spikemark/drive-communication/analyzing-movements.md) feature.
{% endhint %}

## Load Cell Readout

![](/files/vHkqNHgcsFJvGDWNZxa2)

When [jogging](/docs/stagehand/stagehand-pro-ac/stagehand-pro-4-operation/stagehand-pro-4-manual-operation-jogging.md#manual-operation-jogging), the Stagehand displays the weight sensed by an attached load cell in the top line of the screen. The weight value is shown after the **W:** label. In the example above, it's 950.5 lb.

The [load cell data can be scaled](/docs/spikemark/load-cell.md) to your preferred unit of measure through Spikemark.

Load cell data from multiple Stagehands can be [viewed through Spikemark](/docs/spikemark/load-cell.md).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.creativeconners.com/docs/stagehand/stagehand-pro-ac/stagehand-pro-4-troubleshooting/stagehand-pro-4-monitoring-behavior.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
