    WIRING WIRING CONNECTIONS: Low Current Two 1/4" push-on terminals are provided for the throttle inputs. If your controller has a voltage throttle input, there will be only one throttle terminal. A 6-pin low power connector molded into the right side of the controller face provides the low power logic control connections—KSI input, forward/ reverse contactor output, bypass contactor output (optional), emergency reverse (optional), and forward and reverse inputs.
  • Page 35 WIRING CONNECTIONS: High Current Four tin-plated solid copper bus bars are provided for the high current connec- tions to the battery and motor. Negative connection to battery Positive connection to battery and to motor armature Output to motor field Plug diode to motor armature The cables used for the battery and motor connections must be heavy enough to carry the high current required.
