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 11-26. 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 (Handheld Programmer) Settings menu; see Plot & Log on page 11-26. For information
on creating names, see
Using the Keyboard in the CDT Owner's Manual.
SETTINGS
M1/M2 Speed
NOTE: M1 refers to “Mode 1” and M2 refers to “Mode 2.” To activate Mode 2 in the CDT, Code A, Code B and Code C
must be entered. See Code A, Code B, and Code C on page 11-9. All settings in Mode 2 are programmed
with the same procedures as Mode 1.
The vehicle’s top speed can be changed by selecting values 1 through 4. See chart below.

SPEED SETTING VEHICLE SPEED
1 8.0 mph (12.9 km/h)
2 12 mph (19.3 km/h)
3 15 mph (24.1 km/h)
4 17 mph (27.4 km/h)
A vehicle programmed for speed setting 4 does not conform to ANSI Z130.1 – American National Standard for Golf
Cars – Safety and Performance Specifications because it is capable of speeds in excess of 15 mph (24.1 km/h). For
more information on this feature, contact your local Club Car distributor or dealer.
M1/M2 Fast Accel
M1/M2 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.
M1/M2 Pedal Up
Three options exist for M1/M2 pedal up (motor braking). On a level surface, when the accelerator pedal is released,
motor braking will slow the vehicle to a stop 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 pedal is released.
When the vehicle is going down an incline, and the accelerator pedal is released motor braking will slow the vehicle to
a controlled speed directly proportional to the slope of the incline when pedal up motor braking is enabled (option
1 or 2). If pedal up motor braking is disabled (option 0), the vehicle will coast up to the programmed top speed
when the pedal is released.
