CURRENT MENU
ALLOWABLE
RANGE
10–45 A Sets the maximum current the controller will supply to the motor during
15–70 A normal driving. By limiting the current supplied, this parameter can be
used to protect the motor from potentially damaging currents or to reduce
the maximum torque applied to the drive system.
For 1212-22xx controllers, it is adjustable from 10 to 45 amperes.
For 1212-24xx controllers, it is adjustable from 15 to 70 amperes.
10–45 A Sets the maximum current the controller will supply to the motor during
15–70 A braking. By limiting the current supplied, this parameter can be used to
protect the motor from potentially damaging currents or to reduce the
maximum braking torque applied to the drive system.
For 1212-22xx controllers, it is adjustable from 10 to 45 amperes.
For 1212-24xx controllers, it is adjustable from 15 to 70 amperes.
10–55 A Boost current gives a brief boost of current that greatly improves
15–80 A performance with transient loads, such as starting on a hill, crossing a
threshold, climbing obstacles, etc. When the controller recognizes that the
motor needs more current to respond to a drive request, it provides a cur-
rent boost of a set amount for a set time.
The Boost Current parameter defines the motor current limit during
the boost period.
For 1212-22xx controllers, it is adjustable from 10 to 55 amperes.
For 1212-24xx controllers, it is adjustable from 15 to 80 amperes.
0–10 sec This parameter sets the maximum time that the boost current is allowed.
INHIBIT MENU
ALLOWABLE
RANGE
0–5 The flexible speed input at J1 Pin 6 can be used to limit or to inhibit speed
under certain conditions. For example, a switch could be installed under
the seat so that if the operator drives the scooter while they are standing
the max speed will be limited.
The Inhibit Type parameter is used to select how the inhibit function
will be implemented. Depending on how the inhibit switch is wired into the
system, set this parameter to:
0 = B- active
1 = B+ active
2 = Open circuit active
3 = B- inactive
4 = B+ inactive
5 = Open circuit inactive.
0–100 % This parameter limits the maximum speed allowed during speed inhibit
mode. A setting of 0 prevents drive during inhibit mode.
