    C82 Board Axis Brake?

    I'm rebuilding my Milltronics Partner 1 mill with all new hybrid steppers, drivers, control, ect... I purchased a 24VDC brake to add onto my Z stepper. I'm trying to figure out how to wire it so that it is enabled with the control and will brake when e-stop is hit or the drive is disabled but I'm not seeing how best to do it. I have this system: https://www.automationtechnologiesin...-110vac-220vac .
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    Mike

    Found out all the outputs are disabled on E-Stop, so I think I'm good.

    Hi,
    I use the Motor0Enable signal to enable all my axes, up to six of them. It is active when the machine is enabled and inactive when the machine is disabled or Estopped.
    I use the same output to drive the electromagnetic brake circuit. When the output is active it turns on a Darlington transistor to pass approx 250mA through the electromagnetic brake
    on the Z axis servo.
