Settings for DC braking
Parameter Description
p0347
Motor de-excitation time (calculated after quick commissioning)
The inverter can trip due to an overcurrent during DC braking if the de-excitation time is
too short.

Table 6- 38 Configuring DC braking as a response to faults
Parameter Description
p2100
Set fault number for fault response (factory setting 0)
Enter the fault number for which DC braking should be activated, e.g. p2100[3] = 7860
(external fault 1).
p2101 = 6 Fault response setting (factory setting 0)
Assigning the fault response: p2101[3] = 6.
The fault is assigned an index of p2100. Assign the same index of p2100 or p2101 to the fault and
fault response.
The inverter's List Manual lists in the "Faults and alarms" list the possible fault responses for every
fault. Entry "DCBRK" means that you may set DC braking as response for this fault.
