Motor Stopping Definitions

Term	Definition
Stop Pedestal Voltage	Stop Pedestal Voltage is the percentage of line voltage applied to the motor after a stop
	command. Programmed as parameter 16 or as Stop Pedestal in Basic Menu.
Stop Time	Time in seconds after a stop command to ramp down the motor voltage (Stop Time 1 or 2)
	Stop Time 1 with low voltage ramp active. Stop Time 2 with no low voltage ramp.
	Programmed as parameter 17 or as Stop Time in Basic Menu.
Stop Smoothing	Adjustable voltage ramp for smooth deceleration. Motor current is monitored and stop
	smoothing will continue until the Start Pedestal value is reached.
	Programmed as parameter
Run Voltage	Full voltage or Running Voltage
Start Pedestal Voltage	Start Pedestal Voltage – end of stop smoothing and beginning of low voltage ramp to zero
	volts (if low voltage ramp is active). Programmed as parameter 11 or as Start Pedestal in
	Basic Menu.
