WARNING
Before connecting any option or auxiliary equipment, make sure that the charge
lamp is off more than 15 minutes after power-off, then confirm the voltage with a
tester or the like. Otherwise, you may get an electric shock.
CAUTION
Use the specified auxiliary equipment and options. Unspecified ones may lead to a
fault or fire.
12.1 Options
12.1.1 Regenerative brake options
CAUTION
The specified combinations of regenerative brake options and base units may only
be used. Otherwise, a fire may occur.
(1) Combinations and regenerative powers
The power values in the table are resistor-generated powers and not rated powers.

(2) Selection of regenerative brake option
(a) Simple judgment of regenerative brake option necessity
The MELSERVO-J2M series does not contain a regenerative brake resistor. Check whether the
regenerative brake option is needed or not in the following method.
1) Requirements
The drive units mounted to the same base unit are all horizontal axes.
The operation pattern is clear and the load inertia moments of the axes to be decelerated
simultaneously are clear.
2) Checking method
The following table gives the permissible load inertia moment that does not require the
regenerative brake option when speed is reduced from 3000r/min.
