I installed braking resistors on 15 identical drives over the last few weekends. After enabling them on one line using CCW, they worked fine. On two other lines, they do not seem to use the resistors at all. There is no discernable difference in stopping from standard at about 7 seconds. We are targeting 3 seconds.
I feel like I'm missing something obvious that I did on one line but it's just a handful of parameter changes! I even copied from one drive that was working (identical FW on 14.002) and it still didn't work. Any ideas are appreciated.
Parameters Changed:
372 Bus Reg Mode A Both DB 1st
373 Bus Reg Mode B Both DB 1st
382 DB Resistor Type- External
383 DB Ext Ohms - 20 Ohms
384 DB Ext Watts- 1000 Wats
385 DB Pulse Watts 57200 (calculated with rockwells worksheet)
Stop mode is in Ramp for quickest stop time.
When checking the HIM on each drive the parameters are correct.. but stopping performance is unchanged.
