Configuration and control of the motor brake
 | Reference values of the motor brake: S-0-0134; S-0-0163; S-0-0206; S-0-0207; S-0-0273; P-0-0059; P-0-0060; P-0-0072; P-0-0096; P-0-0097 |
If your servomotor is equipped with a motor brake, it is controlled via the AX5000 servo drive. For Beckhoff servomotors of the AM8000 series, the data for the motor brake are taken from the electronic type plate (or offline from the motor data files *.xeds). The motor data generator can be used to create motor data files for third-party motors. In situations with special application requirements, the motor brake can be opened and closed using the „MotorCtrlWord“ or via the TC3 Drive Manager for testing purposes.
| In the TC3 Drive Manager the IDNs for the motor brake are consolidated in a group under „Configuration → Motor and Feedback → Motor brake“. The selection options for IDN P-0-0060 (motor brake) are described in chapter Configuration. Further information on the parameters S-0-0206 and S-0-0207, and on manual control of the motor brake can be found in chapter Control. The holding torque of the motor brake is mapped in parameter P-0-0072 (motor brake data). The moment of inertia is added to that of the servomotor. |
