Comment on characteristic of P037 stopping mode of PowerFlex 4

Answer 1

Characteristic of P037 stopping mode:-

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. In this case, the drive will always coast to a stop regardless of the settings of P036 [Start Source] and P037 [Stop Mode].

Active stop mode for all stop sources [e.g. keypad, run forward (I/O Terminal 02), run reverse (I/O Terminal 03), RS485 port].

I/O Terminal 01 is always a coast to stop input except when P036 [Start Source] is set for “3-Wire” control. In three wire control, I/O Terminal 01 is controlled by P037 [Stop Mode].
