2.7  Selection of Regenerative Resistor 
When the direction of pull-out torque is different from the rotation, it means the electricity is sent 
back to the servo drive from the load-end. It becomes the capacitance of DC Bus and increases 
the voltage. When the voltage increases to a specific value, the come-back eletricity can only be 
consumed by regenerative resistor. There is a built-in regenerative resistor in the servo drive. 
Users can also use the external regenerative resistor if needed.
