FUNCTION 14  

INTERNAL RESISTANCE 
COMPENSATION  

 

( Push 14 ) 

 

This function is used when the Battery Discharge Indicator 

is present. Adjustment of this function will improve the 

accuracy of the BDI. In order to determine this setting the 

voltage drop of the battery under load must first be 

calculated by the following method.  This function can be 

changed by the dash display mode selection button. 

 
1.  On a fully charged battery

,

 record the open circuit 

voltage (Vo) by measuring the voltage at the control 

positive and negative power terminals. 

2.  Load the traction motor to 100 amps in 1A and record the 

voltage (V

L

) at the control positive and negative power 

terminal. 

3.  Calculate voltage drop (V

Drop

) as follows:   

 

V

Drop

 = V

O

 - V

L

 

4.  Use the table below to determine the appropriate setting 

using the calculated V

Drop

 as a reference.

FUNCTION 15  

BATTERY VOLTS 

 (Push 

l5) 

 

This function allows for the adjustment of voltage range for 

controls equipped with the Battery Discharge Indication 

function. In order for the BDI to operate properly, the 

setting as shown in the table must be entered: 

 

Battery volts 

Set units 

24 volts 

Between 0 and 31 

36 volts 

Between 32 and 44 

48 volts 

Between 45 and 69 

72 volts 

Between 70 and 80 

80 volts 

Between 81 and 183 

36/48 volts 

Between 184 and 250 

No BDI 

Between 251 and 255 

 

 
 
.

FUNCTION 16   STALL TRIP POINT WITH % ON-TIME 

 

 This function allows for the adjustment of control percent 

on time for the stall motor trip point 

 

Control % On time = 163 -(Set Point Val)*.892 

 

    If  163 or greater, then “0.0” % on time 

    If   51 or less, then “100.”% on time 

 
FUNCTION 17  

CARD TYPE SELECTION 

 

( Push CONT 2 ) 

 

This function allows for the selection of the card type used 

for your vehicle's application. The table below shows the 

setting to select card application type, depending on which 

control card is used. 

 

 

FUNCTIONS REGEN 

BDI Lockout Disable Auto Regen 

50 to 54 

BDI Lockout Enable AutoRegen 

55 to 59 

Settings for these functions should be made within the 

ranges indicated above.  

 

Warning: These settings must be changed by authorized 
personnel only, following instructions supplied by the 
vehicle manufacturer. Card type selection must be made 
within the capabilities of the control panel used and the 
supporting electro mechanical devices. Failure to comply 
with proper application standards could result in mis-
operation or damage to the control and/or motors. 

 

FUNCTION 18  

LINE CONTACTOR TIME DELAY 

 

( Push CONT 3 )

 

 

This function allows for the adjustment of the run mode 

after the seat switch opens.  

 

Range   

1.5 to 65 seconds   

Setting    

Between 0 and 128 

The following functions have function numbers larger 

than the numbers on the Handset keyboard. To access 

these functions. Push the CONT key and the number 

shown in the following instructions at the same time.  

THE SEAT SWITCH MUST BE OPEN.
