If your application will have widely varying loads, we recommend that you include
a load sensor (at Pin 1). The use of a load sensor can prevent unnecessarily harsh
braking at light loads, which may lock up the wheels.
MIN FWD REGEN
[applicable only with optional load sensor]
The
minimum forward regen
parameter de
fi
nes the maximum regenerative
current at minimum load while traveling in the forward direction. The Min Fwd
Regen current is adjustable from 25 amps up to the controller
’
s full rated
current. The forward regen current increases linearly from Min Fwd Regen to
Max Fwd Regen as the load sensor input varies from Min Load Volts to Max
Load Volts.
Note: If the load sensor
’
s voltage is out of range (less than 0.2 V or greater
than 4.8 V) during interlock braking while the vehicle is driving forward, the
regen current will default to the programmed Max Fwd Regen value.
MIN REV REGEN
[applicable only with optional load sensor]
The
minimum reverse regen
parameter de
fi
nes the maximum regenerative
current at minimum load while traveling in the reverse direction. The Min Rev
Regen current is adjustable from 25 amps up to the controller
’
s full rated
current. The reverse regen current increases linearly from Min Rev Regen to Max
Rev Regen as the load sensor input varies from Min Load Volts to Max Load
Volts.
Note: If the load sensor
’
s voltage is out of range (less than 0.2 V or greater
than 4.8 V) during interlock braking while the vehicle is driving in reverse, the
regen current will default to the programmed Max Rev Regen value.
MAX LOAD VOLTS
[applicable only with optional load sensor]
The
maximum load volts
parameter de
fi
nes the load sensor input voltage at the
maximum load. It is adjustable from 0.2 V to 4.8 V.
MIN LOAD VOLTS
[applicable only with optional load sensor]
The
minimum load volts
parameter de
fi
nes the load sensor input voltage at the
minimum load. It is adjustable from 0.2 V up to the programmed Max Load
Volts.
