4.2.7 Connection of a braking resistor
CAUTION
Not fall below the minimum braking resistor value!
Falling below the minimum braking resistor value destroys the braking
transistor of the drive controller.

NOTICE
Only intrinsically safe braking resistors permitted !
Only "intrinsically safe" braking resistors are permitted for this opera-
tion, since these resistors interrupt themselves at fault such as safety
fusewithoutrerisk.
