Allen-Bradley PowerFlex400 User Manual

Programming and Parameters 3-9
Basic Program Group (continued)
P037 [Stop Mode] Related Parameter(s): P036, C105, A176, A177, A178
Active stop mode for all stop sources [e.g. keypad, run forward (I/O Terminal 02), run reverse (I/O
Terminal 03), RS485 port] except as noted below.
Important: I/O Terminal 01 is always a coast to stop input except when P036
[Start Source] is set for
“3-Wire” control. When in three wire control, I/O Terminal 01 is controlled by P037
[Stop Mode].
Hardware Enable Circuitry
By default, I/O Terminal 01 is a coast to stop input. The status of the input is interpreted by drive
software. If the application requires the drive to be disabled without software interpretation, a
“dedicated” hardware enable configuration can be utilized. This is accomplished by removing the
ENBL enable jumper on the control board. See page 1-17
for details. In this case, the drive will always
coast to a stop regardless of the settings of P036
[Start Source] and P037 [Stop Mode].
Options 0 “Ramp, CF”
(1)
Ramp to Stop. “Stop” command clears active fault.
1 “Coast, CF”
(1)
(Default) Coast to Stop. “Stop” command clears active fault.
2 “DC Brake, CF”
(1)
DC Injection Braking Stop. “Stop” command clears active
fault.
3 “DCBrkAuto,CF”
(1)
DC Injection Braking Stop with Auto Shutoff.
• Standard DC Injection Braking for value set in A176
[DC
Brake Time].
OR
• Drive shuts off if the drive detects that the motor is
stopped.
“Stop” command clears active fault.
4 “Ramp” Ramp to Stop.
5 “Coast” Coast to Stop.
6 “DC Brake” DC Injection Braking Stop.
7 “DC BrakeAuto” DC Injection Braking Stop with Auto Shutoff.
• Standard DC Injection Braking for value set in A176
[DC
Brake Time].
OR
• Drive shuts off if the drive detects that the motor is
stopped.
(1)
Stop input also clears active fault.
