Description: Compound braking current is used to define the amount of DC current that is produced on stopping the motor dur-
ing V/f operation to further increase the DC brake function.
The compound brake is a superimposition of the DC brake function with the regenerative brake (net braking along
the ramp) after OFF1 or OFF3. This permits braking with controlled motor frequency and minimum power input into
the motor. Effective braking without using additional hardware components is obtained by optimizing the ramp
down time and the compound brake.
Dependency: The compound braking current is only activated if the DC link voltage exceeds the threshold value in r1282.
The compound brake does not operate:
- when the DC brake is active (refer to p1230, r1239)
- as long as the motor is not magnetized (e.g. for flying restart)
- for vector control (p1300 >= 20)
- for synchronous motors (p0300 = 2xx)
Caution: Generally, increasing the braking current improves the braking effect when stopping the motor. However, if the
value is set too high, then the drive can be tripped (shut down) as a result of overcurrent.
Recommendation: p3856 < 100 % * (r0209 - r0331) / p0305 / 2
The compound brake generates a current in the motor with a ripple manifesting the rotational frequency. The higher
the braking current is set, the higher the resulting ripple, especially when the Vdc(max) control is simultaneously
active (refer to to p1280).
Note: The parameter value is entered relative to the rated motor current (p0305). The compound brake is deactivated with
p3856 = 0%.
Description: Status display of the compound brake.
Dependency: Refer to: p3856
Description: Sets the signal source to activate emergency operation (ESM = Essential Service Mode) via digital inputs.
