Terminals for connecting DC reactor, external brake resistor, external brake resistor 
and DC circuit 
  This is the terminals used to connect the DC reactor to improve the power factor. For 
the factory setting, it connects the short-circuit object. Please remove this short-circuit 
object before connecting to the DC reactor. 
 
Figure 5-2
 
  Connect  a  brake  resistor  or  brake  unit  in  applications  with  frequent  deceleration 
ramps,  short  deceleration  time,  too  low  brake  torque  or  requiring  increased brake 
torque. 
 
Figure 5-3 
  The external brake resistor of Frame A, B and C should connect to the terminals (B1, 
B2) of AC motor drives. 
  For those models without built-in brake resistor, please connect external brake unit 
and brake resistor (both of them are optional) to increase brake torque. 
  When the terminals +1, +2 and - are not used, please leave the terminals open. 
  DC+ and DC- are connected by common DC BUS, please refer to Section 5-1 (Main 
Circuit Terminal) for the wiring terminal specification and the wire gauge information.   
  Please refer to the VFDB manual for more information on wire gauge when installing 
the brake unit.
