5.2.7 Brake Release Timing (Dwell Function)
F12: Starting Dwell Frequency (Factory Default: 3.0 Hz.)
Range:0.0 – F9 Hz.
F13: Starting Dwell Time (Factory Default: 0.5 sec. Hoist.)
Range:0.1 sec. – 10.0 sec. 0.1 sec. Traverse)
The dwell function is used for torque proving before the brake is released. The
current is applied to the motor during the Starting Dwell Time [F13] before releasing
the brake.
Caution: Dwell frequency should be set to the slip frequency of the motor if the slip
is greater than 3 Hz. To calculate slip frequency, see Section 3.3.
