    Hi Everybody,

    If you can please help me.. I'm building a sim with Vfd, 3 phase motors and arduino. The arduino code was written by my friend. Everything is good but there is a little problem with brake. When the motor stands in a position i think it would be hold the position fix but i can move it by hand you can see it in the video. So where is the problem in the code or in vfd brake settings. Sorry for english i am from Hungary with poor knowledge of english.


    Thank you

    When powered on the motor should hold and not be able to be back driven. Hard to say if it is a code or PID problem without knowing what the code does or does not do.

    I have got the code. Can you or anyone look at it in this site? I don't understand it so much.
