In hal, that is the flipflop component, for more info use : man flipflop on your EMC machine. In this case, you would not use the D or clk input, only the set and reset inputs and the out output. I don't use the brake, except when changing tools. I let the VFD do the braking. But, if your brake is pneumatic, you might need the solenoid valve hooked up anyway for tool changes.
