VS1MX Dynamic Braking Resistors
VS1MX Frame B and C drives include built-in braking transistors to aid in applications requiring the ability to stop rapidly.
The brake resistor must be mounted and secured in place. Two wires connect to the + and BR terminals on the power strip
of the size B or the larger enclosure. Refer to Table 4-1 for minimum brake resistor values if a value that is larger than the
stock resistor kit is required.

115VAC 2 - 47
230VAC 2 to 5 1.5 to 4 47

2 to 3 1.5 to 2.2 100
5 4 100
7.5 to 10 5.5 to 7.8 47
When the standard brake resistor kit is used, set P-34=1.
This provides software thermal protection for the standard 200W brake resistor kit.
When special brake resistors are used, set P-34=2.
No software thermal protection is provided in this setting and an external thermal device is required to protect the resistor.
