PARAMETER RANGE DESCRIPTION
Brake Type 0 – 2 The brake type parameter determines how the EM brake responds to the
EM_Brake_Type 0 – 2 interlock input, throttle, and vehicle motor speed.
0x3097 0x00
0 EM brake function disabled. The EM brake driver (PWM2) is
released to general I/O use with VCL.
1 EM brake controlled by interlock. The controller will command the
EM brake to release whenever the interlock is closed (Interlock =
On). If interlock braking is enabled and the interlock opens
when the vehicle is moving at motor speed greater than
Set_Speed_Threshold, the controller will brake the vehicle to a stop
(with interlock braking) and then command the EM brake to set.
If the vehicle motor speed is less than this threshold, the EM brake
will engage after the Sequencing_Delay has expired.
If interlock braking is disabled, the EM brake will engage after
the Sequencing_Delay has expired.
2 EM brake controlled by interlock and neutral. The controller will
command the EM brake to set whenever the throttle command is
  zeroandmotorspeedislessthanSet_Speed_Threshold.
Position Hold will be enabled automatically.
Pull In Voltage 0 – 100 % The EM brake pull-in voltage allows a high initial voltage when the EM
EM_Brake_Pull_In_Voltage 0 – 32767 brakerstturnson,toensurebrakerelease.After1second,thispeak
0x3072 0x00 voltage drops to the EM brake holding voltage.
Note: The Battery Voltage Compensated parameter controls whether
the pull-in and holding voltages are battery voltage compensated.
Holding Voltage
0 – 100 % The EM brake holding voltage allows a reduced average voltage to be
EM_Brake_Holding_Voltage 0 – 32767 applied to the brake coil once the brake has been released. This
0x3098 0x00 parameter must be set high enough to hold the brake released under all
shock and vibration conditions the vehicle will be subjected to.
Note: The Battery Voltage Compensated parameter controls whether
the pull-in and holding voltages are battery voltage compensated.
Battery Voltage Compensated
On / Off This parameter determines whether the EM brake pull-in and holding
EM_Brake_Battery_Voltage_ On / Off voltages are battery voltage compensated. When set On, the pull-in and
Compensated holding voltages are compensated relative to the set Nominal Voltage (see
EM_Brake_Battery_Voltage_ Battery Menu, page 64). In other words, the output voltage is adjusted to
Compensated_Bit0 [Bit 0] compensate for swings in battery voltage, so the percentage is relative to
0x302D 0x00 the set Nominal Voltage—not to the actual voltage.
For example, suppose Nominal Voltage is set to 48V and Holding
Voltage is set to 75% (36V) to the output driver. Now suppose the bus
voltage dips to 40V. If Battery Voltage Compensated = On, the output will
still be 36V (Nominal Voltage × Holding Voltage) to the coil. If Battery Volt-
age Compensated = Off, the output will be 30V (Actual Voltage × Holding
Voltage) to the coil.

EM_Brake_Set_Upon_Fault On / Off electromagnetic brake when a fault occurs that has a fault action of
EM_Brake_Set_Upon_ ShutdownEMBrake. See Section 9 for a list of all the faults that have a fault
Fault_Bit0 [Bit 0] action of ShutdownEMBrake.
