Example: Automatic DC braking when stopping the motor

In order that the DC braking is automatically active when the motor is stopped, the corresponding operating threshold must be set in 0x2B84:003 (P704.03).
–
After a stop command, the motor is first decelerated as set. Once the output frequency falls below the set operating threshold, the inverter stops the deceleration and activates DC braking.
 
–
DC braking is carried out with the braking current set in 0x2B84:001 (P704.01) for the hold time set in 0x2B84:002 (P704.02).
 
–
The exact behavior depends on the stop method set in 0x2838:003 (P203.03).

①
With the stop method "Standard ramp [1]", the motor is first decelerated normally until the value falls below the operating threshold set in 0x2B84:003 (P704.03).
②
The motor coasts down for a specified time. This "demagnetizing time" serves to reduce the induced voltage.
③
The DC braking becomes active for the hold time set in 0x2B84:002 (P704.02).
④
If the inverter is disabled, the motor coasts. (DC braking is only possible if the inverter is enabled).
⑤
If there is a new start command within the hold time, the DC braking is cancelled. The motor is accelerated to the setpoint again.
 
Stop method = "Quick stop ramp [2]"
Same behavior as with the stop method "Standard ramp [1]", except that the motor is decelerated with the quick stop ramp instead of the standard ramp.
 
Stop method = "Coasting [0]"
