The time the motor takes to decrease speed (except during a coast-to-rest stop) is 
directly proportional to the value in this parameter. This parameter does not apply to 
jog.
Note that motor load inertia and input line conditions can extend the deceleration time 
to a value greater than the preset time. With fast deceleration times, regenerative 
motor voltage might charge up the DC bus voltage, causing a HIGH DC BUS 
VOLTAGE fault. To avoid the fault condition, extend the deceleration time. If a 
deceleration time faster than the acceptable range is required, installing an optional 
Snubber Resistor Kit or Regenerative Braking Module Kit might prevent the fault.
For V/Hz regulation with dynamic braking (snubber resistor) disabled (INPUT 
PWR/SNUB CONFIG, H.017, programmed to 0, 2, or 4) the deceleration time can be 
extended to prevent a high DC bus voltage condition.
Note that in V/Hz regulation, the drive can decrease output frequency below 
MINIMUM SPEED, but not below 0.5 Hz, to avoid an overcurrent fault.
DECEL TIME (P.002)
Specifies the time it 
takes for the motor 
speed to decrease to 
zero speed from 
MAXIMUM SPEED, 
P.004 (V/Hz 
regulation) or 
MOTOR TOP 
SPEED, U.017 
(vector regulation).
Parameter Range:
1.0 to 999.9 SEC (V/Hz)
0.1 to 999.9 SEC (vector)
Default Setting:
20.0 SEC
Parameter Type:
TUNABLE
MINIMUM SPEED (P.003)
Limits the reference. 
Regardless of the 
supplied reference, 
the regulator will not 
command a speed 
less than the value 
programmed for this 
parameter.
Parameter Range:
0.5 to MAXIMUM SPEED (P.004) HERTZ (V/Hz)
0 to MAXIMUM SPEED (P.004) RPM (vector)
Default Setting:
5.0 HERTZ (V/Hz)
150 RPM (vector)
Parameter Type:
Tunable

ATTENTION: The drive can operate at and maintain zero speed. The 
user is responsible for assuring safe conditions for operating personnel 
by providing suitable guards, audible or visual alarms, or other devices 
to indicate that the drive is operating or can operate at or near zero 
speed. Failure to observe this precaution could result in severe bodily 
injury or loss of life.
