(2) Brake Signal (/BK) Setting
This output signal controls the brake. The allocation of the /BK signal can be changed. Refer to (3) Brake Sig-
nal (/BK) Allocation for allocation.
The /BK signal turns OFF (applies the brake) when an alarm is detected or the SV_OFF command is received.
The brake OFF timing can be adjusted with Pn506.
• Configure the relay circuit to apply the holding brake by the emergency stop.
• The allocation of the /BK signal can be changed. Refer to (3) Brake Signal (/BK) Allo-
cation to set the parameter Pn50F.
• When using a 24-V brake, separate the 24-VDC power supply from other power sup-
plies, such as the one used for the I/O signals of CN1 connectors. Always install the
24-VDC power supply separately. If the power supply is shared, the I/O signals might
malfunction.
