Brake Control
Signals
The Brake Control function enables the inverter to control external braking systems with a
particular safety characteristic. A complete discussion of the operation of brake control is in
“
External Brake Control Function” on page 4–39. The block diagram and table that follow
describe the configuration of the outputs [BRK] Brake Release and [BER] Brake Error.

Output Signals
Other outputs listed below require expansion card SJ-FB Encoder Feedback board. Please see

Description
19 BRK Brake Release ON when the inverter signals the external
brake system to release (open) its brake
OFF when the inverter is not driving the motor,
and needs the external brake engaged
20 BER Brake Error ON when the output current is less than the set
releasing current
OFF when the brake function is not in use, or
when the output current to the motor is
correct and it is safe to release the brake
Valid for
outputs:
11, 12, 13, 14, 15,
AL0 – AL2

settings:
B120, B121, B122, B123,
B124, B125, B126
Notes:
• The brake release logic convention is such that
an open circuit fault (such as loose wire)
causes the external brake to engage.
