Using the Holding Brake

The holding brake is used when a XtraDrive controls a vertical axis. In
other words, a servomotor with brake prevents the movable part from
shifting due to the force of gravity when system power goes OFF.
Wiring Example
Use the servo amplifier contact output signal /BK and the brake power
supply to form a brake ON/OFF circuit. The following diagram shows a
standard wiring example.
