A437 [DB Resistor Sel]
Stop drive before changing this parameter.
Enables/disables external dynamic braking and selects the level of resistor protection.
Options 0 “Disabled” (Default)
1 “Norml RA Res” 5%
2 “NoProtection” 100%
3...99 “3...99% DutyCycle”
A438 [DB Threshold] Related Parameter(s): A437
Sets the DC bus voltage threshold for Dynamic Brake operation. If DC bus voltage rises above this level, Dynamic Brake turns on. Lower values makes the dynamic braking function more
responsive but may result in nuisance Dynamic Brake activation.
Values Default: 100.0%
Min/Max: 10.0/110.0%
Display: 0.1%
ATTENTION: Equipment damage may result if this parameter is set to a value that causes the dynamic braking resistor to dissipate excessive power. Parameter
settings less than 100% should be carefully evaluated to ensure that the Dynamic Brake resistor's wattage rating is not exceeded. In general, values less than
90% are not needed. This parameter's setting is especially important if parameter A437 [DB Resistor Sel] is set to 2 “NoProtection”.
A439 [S Curve %]
Enables a fixed shape S-Curve that is applied to the acceleration and deceleration ramps (including jog).
S-Curve Time = (Accel or Decel Time) x (S-Curve Setting in percentage)
Values Default: 0%
Min/Max: 0/100%
Display: 1%
S-Curve Time
Total Time to Accelerate = Accel Time + S-Curve Time
50% S-Curve

Example:
Accel Time = 10 s
S-Curve Setting = 30%
S-Curve Time = 10 x 0.3 = 3 s
