MOTORS & BRAKES MENU, cont'd
RANGE
12–24 V Sets the initial voltage of the brakes when they first turn on. Set this
parameter to match your brakes.
6–24 V Sets the level to which the brake coil voltage will be reduced after approx.
1 sec at full battery voltage. This feature saves power and prevents
overheating.
Sets the length of the delay between when zero speed is detected and the
brakes are set.
0–7 Inverts and/or swaps the left and right motor characteristics.
On/Off Puts the system into a reduced current test mode to allow the motor to be
stalled and the motor/system resistance to be accurately measured and
displayed in the programmer's Monitor screen. The resultant value must be
used for the System Resistance parameter above.
After getting the measurement, be sure to set the Motor Test Mode
parameter back to Off.
The menu allows any lead acid battery to be installed and the BDI
Battery
algorithm tailored to match it. Actual usage duty cycle greatly affects the settings
and the overall accuracy of the BDI algorithm. The power level and type of
battery charger used also affect the BDI algorithm, and therefore testing must
be done to match the charger as well.
See Appendix A for guidelines on setting up these BDI parameters.
BATTERY MENU
RANGE
0–36.0 V Voltage when the battery is fully charged.
0–36.0 V Voltage when the battery is fully discharged.
0–36.0 V Voltage when a charger is connected above which the battery
is considered finished charging.
0–36.0 V Voltage above which the battery is considered charging.
0–36.0 V Voltage at which the BDI calculator will be reset to 100%.
1–100 Discharge rate of the battery. Larger values are for larger batteries,
which discharge more slowly.
1–100 Charge rate of the battery. Larger values are for larger batteries,
which charge more slowly
