Where can I obtain the PacDrive M - Planning Guide. We need to add an external braking resistor to a PS5 and want to know what the minimum resistance is. The manual for the PS5 does not specify this.

Dear Vaughn,
please find attached the hardware planning guide for PacDriveM System and the manuals for PS-5 and MC-4. PS-5 manual contains the relevant connection information for an external bleeder to the PS-5. The technical data of the Bleeder Module BM-4 that was available for PacDriveM is described in the MC-4 manual (see chapter 6.3.7 BM-4 Braking resistor module). This can be at least an indication regarding power ratings.
Hope that helps.
Best regards
Ralf
