Inhibit
An inhibit switch may be fitted, when pin C is connected to pin A [or the + button is
pressed] the Pro-150 will not operate. Trip code 11 will be displayed. When the
inhibit is removed, the Pro-150's ignition must be switched off and on again to reset
it. If Inhibit is activated during motion, the Pro-150 will ramp down to zero speed
and stop. It may thus be used as an emergency stop or input for a motor overheat
sensor.
8. Braking
Parking Brake
Some motors are fitted with an electromagnetic parking brake to lock the motor
shaft once it has stopped. The brake is released by the Pro-150 applying the
battery voltage to it as drive is engaged.
Such a brake can be connected to the brake connector as shown in diagram below.
The brake must not draw more than 1A, or the Pro-150 will shut down. Be careful
to check the brake wiring - especially at 48v since a shorted brake coil could
damage the Pro-150.
A 3rd pin (C) is present: this is internally connected to battery -ve and may be used
to wire a 3 position switch as show to give a manual brake rele0ase.
Some multi-motor applications will have the motors wired in parallel and their
brakes wired in series.
