High Slip
Braking
YES YES N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A
Increases motor loss to allow for faster
deceleration than normal without the use of
a braking resistor. The effectiveness may
vary based on motor characteristics.
Feed Forward
Control
N/A N/A N/A YES N/A N/A YES
Improves speed accuracy when the load
changes by compensating effects of the
system inertia.
Kinetic Energy
Buffering
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
Decelerates the drive to allow it to ride
through a momentary power loss and
continue operation.
Overexcitation
Deceleration
YES YES YES YES N/A N/A N/A
Provides fast deceleration without using a
braking resistor.

Overvoltage
Suppression
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
Prevents overvoltage by increasing speed
during regeneration. Never use this
function with hoist or crane applications.
High Frequency
Injection
N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A YES N/A
Greatly increases the speed control range
of an IPM motor.
