BRK_ON and BRK_OFF commands are always valid as command as long as no warning
occurs.
Therefore, sending BRK_OFF command while the servomotor is being powered (Servo
ON) will not change the operation status.
However, it is very dangerous to send SV_OFF command in the above status since the
brake is kept released.
Always make sure of the status of brake control command when using BRK_ON or
BRK_OFF command.
