How is the DC injection braking setup on the ATV212 drives?

DC injection bracking can be configured on the ATV212 series drives via the following three parameters found under the extended function menu (F---)

F250 =  DC braking starting frequency, set to a value > 0
F251 =  DC braking current  level
F252 =  DC braking time

Caution:  Prolonged periods of DC injection can damage the motor by generating excess heat.
