//
// If you want to restrict the maximum current LOWER than what your
// motor shield can provide, you can do that here. For example if you
// have a motor shield that can provide 5A and your power supply can
// only provide 2.5A then you should restict the maximum current to
// 2.25A (90% of 2.5A) so that DCC-EX does shut off the track before
// your PS does shut DCC-EX. MAX_CURRENT is in mA so for this example
// it would be 2250, adjust the number according to your PS. If your
// PS has a higher rating than your motor shield you do not need this.
// You can use this as well if you are cautious and your trains do not
// need full current.
