Set up the scooter profile
The following section involves programming various parameters to set up the scooter profile. For
more information on programming, including cable requirements, see the
page 17.
Set up throttle parameters
Set
R
HINO
2
Swap Throttle Direction
(
4.4.1.3
) to match the Rhino’s
Pot Reverse
setting.
Set
R
HINO
2
Throttle Input
(
4.4.2.2
) to “
Single
”.
Set
Throttle Neutral Offset
based on Rhino’s
Speed Pot Neutral
setting. Please see
(page 20) for more information.
Set
R
HINO
2
Throttle Full Scale Deflection
(
4.4.2.4
) to ensure that the scooter’s full speed can
be attained with the throttle’s movement. For more information, please see the
R
HINO
2
Installation Manual
, section
4.4.2.4
.
Set
R
HINO
2
Throttle Response
(
4.4.2.5
) to match the Rhino’s
Demand Curve
setting, typically
80%.
Set
R
HINO
2
Speed Limit Pot
(
4.4.2.11
) to “
No
”.
Set up drive performance parameters
Set
R
HINO
2
parameters in the
Drive Performance
(
4.4.3
) section of the
R
HINO
2
profile, for
acceleration and deceleration, to meet the scooter’s requirements. See
(page 19) in this guide for more information.
Set
R
HINO
2
Soft Start Period
(
4.4.3.9
) to a similar level of Rhino.
Set
R
HINO
2
Soft Finish
(

) between
25 to 28%
in order to match Rhino deceleration
characteristics.

2
Motor Reverse
(
4.4.5.4
) to match the Rhino’s
Motor Reverse
setting.
Set
R
HINO

behaviour to that of the Rhino.
Set
R
HINO
2
Remembered Load Compensation
2
(
4.4.5.8
