[IONI PRO] Stepper motor speed limit

I have a small question regarding the speed limit of a stepper motor.
I understand that the MMS “speed limit” parameter applies to the speed as it is being measured by the position sensor.
When the (stepper) motor tries to reach a target setpoint, the speed increases but there seem to be speed limit. If the mechanism is at a limit, or the sensor is not correctly driven, it could lead the motor to dangerous speeds.
I would like to limit the speed in terms of rev/s or steps/s, in other words the phases frequency applied to the the stepper motor.
