Make sure the resistor is suitable for the drive ie dont go below the drives minimum brake resistor ohms. Also use a decent brake resistor not some of the rubbish thats around. Heres a good site with brake resistor info but its in the UK

I normally have the resistor fitted with a thermal switch for overheat and feed this back to the drive or a plc.
