Maintenance
There are no user-serviceable parts inside the controllers. Do not attempt to open the
controller. Or will void warranty. However, cleaning the controller exterior periodically should be
necessary.
The controller is inherently a high power device. When working with any battery powered
vehicle, proper safety precautions should be taken. These include, but are not limited to, proper
training, wearing eye protection, avoiding loose clothing and jewelry, and using insulated tools.

Cleaning
Although the controller requires virtually no maintenance after properly installation, the following
minor maintenance is recommended in certain applications.
•
Remove power by disconnecting the battery, starting with battery positive.
•
Discharge the capacitors in the controller by connecting a load (such as a contactor coil,
resistor or a horn) across the controller’s B+ and B- terminals.
•
Remove any dirt or corrosion from the bus bar area. The controller should be wiped with a
moist rag. Be sure it is dry before reconnecting the battery.
••••
Make sure the connections to the bus bars are tight. Use two wrenches for this task in
order to avoid stressing the bus bars; the wrenches should be well insulated.

Configuration
You can configure the controller with a host computer through RS232 or USB port.
•
Use straight through RS232 cable or USB converter provide by Kelly to connect the D9
connector to a host computer. Provide >18V (either J2 pin1 or J1 pin14) to PWR. Wire
power supply return to any RTN pin.
•
Do not connect B+, throttle and so on. The controller may display fault code, but it doesn't
affect programming or configuration.
