AT's quoted prices on their web page, a/o this morning, were uniformly 
all $435 with a note they also needed some sort of a controller 
interface too, price UNK on that.

Looking in the small booklet for this FVD, an ASKPOWER A131, they don't 
offer a lot of data, but do say a 1.5 kw should use a 100 ohm resistor 
that can stand 250 watts for the short duty cycle situation.  But the 
bigger concern is that the braking rsistor terminals P & B, are not to 
be found on the customer interface, nor on the top, logic board in the 
device. Possibly on the power output board, but I haven't dissed it far 
enough to see that if that is where they are.

Can anyone else advise me on this, or do I have a vfd that cannot do 
this?
