The correct configuration ensures that the motor temperature is read and forwarded to yarprobotinterface, but currently this measure in not published on the yarp `stateExt` port. Therefore the user needs to develop a module application similar to [this one](https://github.com/MSECode/motionControlModule), in order to read the temperature. In addition, the user module can retrieve the `warningTemperatureLimits` and check if the current temperature exceeds that limit to put the motor in a less-current consumption state.
