3.1.8.2.4 Quick stop
3.1.8.2.4.1 Overview
When the drive is in motion and the user wishes to stop quickly for any reason, the Quick Stop state can be
activated. This function uses a profile to drive the motor from the current velocity down to zero with a
specific Quick Stop deceleration. Quick stop can also be performed when an internal fault happens to stop
the drive in a controlled way.
Attention
Note that the brake might get damaged when the motor does not ramp down to zero velocity. This can
happen due to one of the following reasons:
when the motor is mechanically unstable
when the control system is unstably or poorly tuned
when the quick-stop feature is misconfigured
If no brake exists, this can even lead to a damaged motor!
Note
At the end of the quick stop procedure, the brake gets engaged when the drive is in
SWITCH_ON_DISABLED (mode 2). When the drive stays in QUICK_STOP_ACTIVE (mode 6) the brake is
not engaged by default.
