Short overview of the relevant parameters:
How to set the "inverter motor brake" function for an oscillation-reduced
operation:
For V/f characteristic open-loop control/closed-loop control (VFCplus):
• Set reduced brake chopper threshold (C00174
) to approx. 70 V.
• Set additive speed (C00987
) to rated slip speed.
• Adapt the deceleration ramp so that the deceleration time is slightly below
(10 ... 30 %) the deceleration time that can be realised with the inverter motor
brake.
For sensorless vector control (SLVC):
• Set reduced brake chopper threshold (C00174
) to approx. 50 V.
• Set additive speed (C00987
) to 1 ... 2-fold rated slip speed.
• Adapt the deceleration ramp so that the deceleration time is slightly below
(10 ... 30 %) the deceleration time that can be realised with the inverter motor
brake.

Note!
When the "inverter motor brake" function is used, torque oscillations occur
which have may have a negative effect on the service life of the components of
the mechanical drive train (e.g. gearbox).
• The extent of the occurring oscillations depends on the drive train (mass
inertia, natural frequencies, etc.) and the function setting.
• We recommend optimising the "inverter motor brake" function for an
oscillation-free operation as described in the following. Usually, this setting
does not cause any torque oscillations which affect the service life of the
gearbox.
• The settings of implementing a maximum acceleration ramp are only
recommended if the inverter motor brake is used infrequently (e.g. in case of
quick stop).
