1. A method for autonomously identifying a type of an unknown motor, said unknown motor being configured to function optimally at a respective one of a plurality of known characteristic values, the method comprising:
- a. measuring a characteristic value of the unknown motor;
b. comparing the measured characteristic value to the plurality of known characteristic values, each known characteristic value being associated with a respective type of the unknown motor, to ascertain the identity of the type of the unknown motor; and
c. identifying the type of the unknown motor based on the comparing of the measured characteristic value to the plurality of known characteristic values.
