Claim:
1. A motor controller coupled to a motor, said motor controller configured to: transmit, during installation and an initial startup of the motor, a first instruction to the motor to perform a first start attempt utilizing at least one parameter in a first set of parameters, wherein the first set of parameters are not preconfigured for a specific application in which the motor is being installed; receive first feedback associated with the first start attempt from the motor; transmit, in response to the first feedback, a second instruction to the motor to perform a second start attempt utilizing at least one parameter in a second set of parameters, wherein the second set of parameters correspond to increased values of the first set of parameters; determine, from second feedback associated with the second start attempt, that the second set of parameters caused the motor to start successfully; and store, in a memory associated with said motor controller, the second set of parameters as starting parameters to be used for subsequent startups of the motor.
