MOTOR.BRAKE

Description

The MOTOR.BRAKE parameter notifies the firmware whether a brake exists or not. It does not apply or release the brake. If a brake is found to be present, the firmware considers hardware indications regarding the brake circuits (such as open circuit or short circuit). If a brake does not exist, then the firmware ignores the hardware indications since they are irrelevant.

Value	Status
0	Motor brake does not exist.
1	Motor brake exists and brake hardware circuitry checks are enabled.
100	For special, low current, brake applications, the F305 fault can be bypassed with this setting.

Enabling the MOTOR.BRAKE (value set to 1) when no motor brake exists creates a fault.

The motor brake is polled every 16 ms.

This parameter is automatically configured for Kollmorgen motors when MOTOR.AUTOSET=1.
