WARNING 
 For compound braking, regenerative braking is superimposed on the DC 
braking (braking along a ramp). This means that components of the kinetic 
energy of the motor and driven load are converted into thermal energy in the 
motor. If this power loss is too high or if the braking operation takes too long, 
then this can cause the drive to overheat !  
 When using compound braking it must be expected that there is a higher level 
of noise above the compound braking switch-in threshold. 
NOTE 
 Compound braking is de-activated, if 
-  flying restart is active, and 
-  DC braking is active is selected. 
 The compound switch-in threshold V
DC-Comp
 is dependent on P1254  
  V
DC-Comp
(P1254 = 0)  ≠  V
DC-Comp
(P1254 ≠ 0) 
a)  Auto-detect circuit enabled (P1254 = 1): 
- V
DC-Comp 
(P1254 = 1) is automatically calculated when the drive inverter 
runs-up - i.e. after the line supply voltage has been connected 
-  Using the auto-detect function, the V
DC-Comp 
threshold automatically 
adapts itself to the line supply voltage at the particular installation 
location. 
b)  Auto-detect function disabled (P1254 = 0): 
- 
0210213.1, PV CompDC ⋅⋅=  
- The V
DC-Comp 
threshold is immediately re-calculated after entering P0210  
-  P0210 must be adapted to the particular installation location
