Parameters CONTROLLER DIAGNOSTIC TOOL (CDT)
PARAMETERS
The Parameters menu is accessed by using the arrow keys to highlight Parameters and pressing the Select softkey to
activate the menu.
The Parameters menu is where you can view and modify the settings of the controller's adjustable parameters.
Navigate through this complex menu using the arrow keys, +/- keys, and softkeys.
The parameters displayed will
depend on the access level of the handset.
Be aware when changing parameter settings, the new values replace the earlier values. If you make adjustments
that you don’t like, and wish you could return to the earlier values, you cannot do this unless you have written down
those earlier settings (which is unlikely) or unless you have saved them. To save your parameter settings, use the
“Save .cpf File” function in the Programming menu; see Plot & Log on page 11-25. Your parameter settings will then be
saved in a .cpf file. You can save as many .cpf files as you desire, and you can create unique names for them. If
you prefer, each .cpf can automatically be given a name consisting of the date and time when it was created; see
the “Text for save as” item in the HHP menu; see Plot & Log on page 11-25. For information on creating names,
see
Using the Keyboard in the CDT Owner's Manual.
SETTINGS
Speed Setting
The vehicle’s top speed can be changed by selecting values 1 through 3. If a value of 4 is displayed for the speed
setting, a special access code has been entered to place the vehicle in “private speed mode.” A speed setting of 4
cannot be selected with the
speed setting menu item. For additional information on speed setting 4, refer to Code A,
Code B, and Code C . See Code A, Code B, and Code C on page 11-8.

NOTE: Present speed values for each speed setting may be observed in the Monitor menu. See Vehicle Speeds on
page 11-13.
Fast Accel
Fast accel (fast acceleration) is an option that can be enabled or disabled. With fast accel turned on, the vehicle will
accelerate at a noticeably faster rate. With this feature turned off, the vehicle speed will gradually increase, even if the
accelerator is quickly pressed to the floor. Turn the feature on or off by pressing “+” or “–” on the change value button.
Pedal Up Mode
Three options exist for pedal up mode (motor braking). When the accelerator pedal is released, motor braking will slow
the vehicle to “near zero speed” when pedal up motor braking is enabled (option 1 or 2). If pedal up motor braking is
disabled (option 0), the vehicle will coast to a stop when the accelerator pedal is released.
See following NOTE.
Change the settings of the Pedal Up Mode by pressing “+” or “–” on the change value button.
NOTE: Pedal Up Mode does not affect top vehicle speed. When the vehicle is going down an incline, the motor
braking function will activate to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the speed setting defined in the Program
menu, regardless of Pedal Up Mode setting (0,1, or 2).
See Speed Setting on page 11-6.
