7-6-3  Operation Timing
*1. The operation of the dynamic brake when there is an error depends on the set value in the Stop Selection – 
Fault Reaction Option Code (3B20-04 hex).
*2. The Brake Interlock Output (BKIR) signal is output when a release request command is received from either 
servo control or EtherCAT communications. The above example shows when there is no brake release 
request from EtherCAT communications.
*3. “t1” is the period until the value becomes smaller than the set value in the Timeout at Servo OFF (4610-02 
hex) or the Threshold Speed at Servo OFF (4610-03 hex), whichever comes earlier.
Note 1. Even when the Servo ON input is turned ON again while the motor is decelerating, the system does not 
enter the Servo ON state until the motor stops.
2. If the main circuit power supply turns OFF while the motor is operating, a phase loss error or main circuit 
undervoltage will occur, in which case this operation timing is applied.
3. If the Brake Interlock Output (BKIR) is output because of Timeout at Servo OFF (4610-02 hex), a Brake 
Interlock Error (Error No. 97.00) will occur.
