Axis.BrakeMode

Specifies the configuration for a motor's dedicated brake logic. Each motor object has a dedicated brake output. The controller enables/disables the brake depending on the states of Axis.AmpEnable and Axis.BrakeMode.

When the amplifier is disabled, the brake will be applied.
When the amplifier is enabled, the brake will be released.

See the diagrams below for the brake logic details:

Case 1. Axis.BrakeMode = Mpx.BrakeMode.None

Case 2. Axis.BrakeMode = Mpx.BrakeMode.Delay
