Regeneration Clamp
The STAC6 includes a regeneration clamp circuit and internal power
dump resistor. Only the circuit is designed to handle any power level
that the drive is able to out put.
The internal power resistor is rated for a continuous 50 watts. This
may not be adequate in cases where the load has a high inertia
content and very little frictional content. For these cases, an external
power resistor may be connected to the drive. When using an
external power resistor, the regeneration parameters must be
changed in the Regen dialog box.
