Abstract
An electromagnetic brake controller for controlling a negative-actuated electromagnetic brake includes an output terminal connectable to the electromagnetic brake and a brake control section that outputs, through the output terminal, a brake control signal to be provided to the electromagnetic brake. The brake control section outputs a brake control signal for releasing the electromagnetic brake in response to a normal brake command and a safety brake command both indicating ON and outputs a brake control signal for applying the electromagnetic brake in response to at least one of the normal brake command or the safety brake command indicating OFF. The electromagnetic brake controller performs both safety control and normal control over the electromagnetic brake connected to the output terminal.
