Cannot spin BLDC motor even in open loop

Hi,
I am a newbie and have been trying to move the BLDC motor forward and reverse direction. Based on the digital inputs 1 and 2 that I activate through DB25 connector. Attached is the configuration and simple script that I wrote. Initially I was working on close loop but since it was all unsuccessful I changed the mode to open loop but still, motor does not move at all.  On the run screen, I do see motor power is increasing and decreasing from 0 to 198  but there is no change in the amps. Does anyone have an idea? I appreciate it in advance.  

actualspeed = getvalue(_BS,1)
top:
If (getvalue(_D,0) = 1)                                                         
SetCommand(-g, 1, 1000)
'SetCommand(-g, 2, 0)
print("Engaged")
print("\n")

elseif (getvalue(_D,1)= 2)
SetCommand (-g, 1, -500)
'SetCommand (-g, 2, 0)
print("Disengaged")
print("\n")

elseif (getvalue(_D,0)=0 and getvalue(_D,1)=0)
SetCommand(-g, 1, 0)
'SetCommand(-g, 2, 0)
print("Stopped")
end if
print("actualspeed:")
print(actualspeed)

When I run the script in the console, I do see "engaged" and "actual speed=0" responses. So it is definitely taking the commands.
