Monitor Menu CONTROLLER DIAGNOSTIC TOOL (CDT)
Since the Monitor menu is updated while the vehicle is in operation, the trained technician has the ability to monitor
the status of several components in conditions or locations where a problem with vehicle performance has been
reported.
See following WARNING.
WARNING
• The vehicle operator should not monitor the handset while the vehicle is in motion. A technician
can monitor the handset while traveling as a passenger in the vehicle. Failure to heed this warning
could result in severe personal injury or death.
The following parameters can be monitored in real time with the handset from the Monitor menu:
BATT VOLTAGE
Displays the current battery voltage at the speed controller.
V
MIN
I
Displays volts (minimum) at a certain amperage. This is a setting parameter used with the Low SOC (State of
Charge) detection fault.
SIGNED BATTERY CURRENT
While driving the vehicle, this displays either the current being pulled out of the batteries or the current being returned
to the batteries during regenerative motor braking. It has a range from negative (–) 300 amps to positive (+) 300 amps.
BDI PERCENT
Battery Discharge Indicator (BDI) Percent displays the current battery state of charge as a percent. It is based on
several parameters monitored by the controller.
SPEED
Vehicle speed in mph.
THROTTLE
Indicates the position of the accelerator pedal from 0% (pedal not pressed) between 95 and 100% (pedal fully pressed).
This item can be monitored when the key switch is in the ON or OFF position.
TEMPERATURE
Displays the temperature (in degrees Celsius) of the speed controller heatsink. During normal operating conditions, the
heatsink temperature should be below 185 °F (±9) (85 °C (±5)).
See following NOTE.
NOTE: Anything that adds resistance (i.e. improper brake adjustment, low air pressure in tires, low battery voltage,
etc.) can cause the operating current to be higher than normal. This higher current increases the temperature
of the speed controller heatsink.
ARM CURRENT
Displays the motor armature current (in amperes).
FIELD CURRENT
Displays the motor field current (in amperes).
