Example of External Connection (Parallel Connection Operation)
Figure 4.3 shows a connection example of a motor control system, which uses the parallel
connection interlocking function.
In this case, both the main unit and the sub-unit must use external resistors of the same
resistance.
To prevent overheating and burning if the dynamic braking unit malfunctions, provide a thermal
relay to shut off the primary power of the inverter when the thermal relay is operating.
Figure 4.3 shows the connection of a thermal relay and Table 4.3 shows a list of applicable
wires.
Note 1: Select relay RY according to the coil (Mg)
specifications and the contact (RY) specifications.
Note 2: R0, T0 terminals depend on inverter model.
