— PROGRAMMABLE TRACTION PARAMETERS: Braking
E-M BRAKE TYPE
The
electromagnetic brake type
parameter configures the low side brake driver
at J1 Pin 20. Driver output is rated at 2 amps and is monitored for overcurrent
faults. An internal diode provides coil suppression through the KSI input (J1 Pin 1).
The electromagnetic brake driver can be programmed to operate in any of the
configurations (i.e., options 0 through 4) described in Table 2.
E-M BRAKE DLY
The
electromagnetic brake driver open delay
parameter allows a delay after
the interlock switch has been opened before the brake driver drops out. The
delay is useful for maintaining braking power for a short time after the interlock
switch has been opened. This parameter is adjustable from 0.0 to 30.0 seconds.
When set to zero, there is no delay and the brake driver opens as soon as the
interlock switch is opened and the sequencing delay expires. This parameter is
not valid when brake driver option 0 is selected (see Table 2).
