Parameter Descriptions
3-41
Selects the source for DC Brake Level (158).
Defines the maximum DC brake current level injected in the motor when “DC Brake” is
selected as a stop mode.
The DC braking voltage used in this function is created by a PWM algorithm and may
not generate the smooth holding force needed for some applications.
Sets the amount of time DC brake current is “injected” into the motor.

!
ATTENTION:
If a hazard of injury due to movement of equipment or
material exists, an auxiliary mechanical braking device must be used to
stop the motor. Failure to observe this precaution could result in severe
bodily injury or loss of life.
ATTENTION:
This feature should not be used with synchronous or
permanent magnet motors. Motors may be demagnetized during braking.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to, or
destruction of, the equipment.
