 ### Motor Failure Trigger
 
-The failure detector can be configured to detect a motor failure while armed (and trigger an associated action) if the ESC current falls outside expected bounds for more than [MOTFAIL_TIME](#MOTFAIL_TIME) seconds.
+The failure detector can be configured to detect a motor failure while armed (and trigger an associated action) if the ESC current falls outside expected threshold for more than [MOTFAIL_TIME](#MOTFAIL_TIME) seconds.
 Motor failures are non-latching: if the failure condition clears, the failure is cleared.
 
 The undercurrent and overcurrent conditions are defined by:
 
 ```text
-undercurrent: {esc current} < {MOTFAIL_C2T} * {motor command [0,1]} - {MOTFAIL_LOW_OFF}
-overcurrent:  {esc current} > {MOTFAIL_C2T} * {motor command [0,1]} + {MOTFAIL_HIGH_OFF}
+undercurrent: {esc current} < {MOTFAIL_C2T} * {motor command [0,1]} - {MOTFAIL_OFF}
+overcurrent:  {esc current} > {MOTFAIL_C2T} * {motor command [0,1]} + {MOTFAIL_OFF}
