Description
The MOTOR.BRAKE parameter notifies the firmware whether a brake exists or not. It does not apply or release
the brake. If a brake is found to be present, the firmware considers hardware indications regarding the brake cir-
cuits (such as open circuit or short circuit). If a brake does not exist, then the firmware ignores the hardware indi-
cations since they are irrelevant.
Value Status
0 Motor brake does not exist.
1 Motor brake exists and brake hardware circuitry checks are enabled.
Enabling the MOTOR.BRAKE (value set to 1) when no motor brake exists creates a fault.
The motor brake is polled every 16 ms.
