A function that controls the motor (i.e., firmly stops motor rotation) by applying a DC voltage to the inductive motor. The function operates either when the motor starts or stops. ・DC Braking at Startup: DC braking is used if the load is large or if it will rotate by inertia and not stop with normal deceleration. ・DC Braking at Stopping: DC braking is used if the load is large or if it will rotate by inertia and not stop with normal deceleration. The stopping time can be shortened by lengthening the DC braking time or increasing the DC braking current.
