I would be interested in hearimg what sort of characteristics they measure, and the values. Worst case, I think we can manually tune the pi loop.
Here's a 575 VAC, 250 HP, 228 amp motor running on a belt conveyor

Motor nameplate info
Rated voltage 575 VAC
Rated Current 228 amps
Rated Horsepower 250 HP
Poles 4
Rated rpm 1775 rpm

P 82 Motor excitation current 57.7 amps
P 90 Motor constant R1 32.1 ohms
P 91 Motor Constant R2 10.73 ohms
P 92 Motor Constant L1 15.22 mH
P 93 Motor Constant L2 15.22 mH
P 94 Motor Constant X 5.63 ohms
P859 Torque Current 220.2 amps

Attached is a few pages from the mitsuibishi controller manual explaining the parameters. I don't see a rotor time constant ...

The file is too large to attach. I put it in dropbox - hope it works for everyone. Let me know one way or the other!

For the record, this is a Mitsubishi A760 Variable Frequency Drive (VFD or controller).
