Hi guys again and thanks for all the answers :)

Well, indeed the problem as Todd suggested is because of the driver
limiting acceleration and velocity. I found in the manual that this can be
changed and they recommend using a value 10 times higher than what LCNC
commands. This is to avoid this peaking to max speed/acceleration problem
of course.

The only drawback is that the only way to change these settings is using
their software and a PC. At least that's what the manual shows.
